What to expect

Jared loves his call centre job, where every client calls up wondering the same thing: whether they want to cheat on their partner. On a busy night, a few calls might prove difficult even for him. Written and performed by Joshua J. Jewkes, with the voices of Ben Felton, Jessica Ivy, Sara Sioufi, Will Tusker and Cerys Jones, the play takes what it calls a controversially neutral look at why people give in to their darkest temptations.

Worth knowing

Running time one hour. Age 16+.
