EMPEROR'S NEW CLOTHES

First produced by The Salon Collective at the Cockpit Theatre, London (2012)

"You’ve got the figures and facts. You’ve reviewed my stats. I’m a sound investment. All income and no expenditure. A calculable risk, fire proof, flood proof, theft proof, secure in sickness and in health, insulated against accidents and acts of Gods, hurricanes, crashing airplanes, outbreaks of unexpected plagues and nuclear apocalypse."

In a world where everything can be insured for the right price, why is there no insurance policy to cover the risk of a broken heart?

A short play about taking a chance on something.
