Helen and Danny's supposed family idyll is completely shattered one evening. Helen's brother Liam stands in the doorway covered in blood and explains that he has helped a foreign man who has been mugged. But as the evening progresses, it becomes clear that Liam's story is a cover-up of what actually happened and that he has stumbled upon his own lies. When Helen stops Danny from calling the police, Danny becomes suspicious, and the couple are suddenly faced with even more essential questions. Dennis Kelly's play depicts a world that is increasingly threatened by violence and scratches at the façade of our own idealized bourgeoisie.
