Wasp

Wasp is a somewhat pared down job, just two actresses, two scenes and 90 minutes long with no interval. But it packs a lot in. Including a death,

Its actually quite a sinister play. A reunion of two "school friends" in their thirties slowly reveals a story of teenage bullying and revenge. It would make quite a good short horror film. It perhaps doesn't show a very attractive view of man (or more particularly woman) kind, but at no point was it anything less than engrossing theatre. And it was anything but predictable, with more than one twist that don't see coming at all.
