On Trial
Brian Way
The residents of a trailer camp have quite a story to tell.
A stranger tried to sell each of them a mysterious elixir which he claimed would make them live longer.
Most, of course, did not buy the elixir --and they are now dead, the water supply having been poisoned by the stranger.
Only seven are left to tell the tale-- the seven who drank the elixir which, it turned out, was an antidote!
Each of their stories is told in a series of interlocking monologues directed at an unseen interviewer.
The effect is somewhat like a "60 Minutes" segment.
Incident At San Bajo is a American play written by Brad Korbesmeyer and published by Samuel French in New York (1989).
