Synopsis

"The finest American playwright of his generation" (Sunday Times) A junk shop.

Three small-time crooks plot to carry out the midnight robbery of a coin collection.

In the hours leading up to the heist, friendship becomes the victim in a conflict between loyalty and business."This play is a parable about the US - not in the journalistic way...but quietly, stealthily, with all the rich interior organisation of a true work of art" (Observer)
