Synopsis

Two plays by Caryl Churchill in one volume which played as a double bill.

In Ice Cream Americans James and Vera travel to England to find James's relatives.

They locate third cousins who are decidedly low life and become entangled in a murder.

In the powerful vignettes of Hot Fudge the competitive games of various professionals and their spouses present an amoral world where money is all and lies are the only truth.
