Gregor Antonescu, a tycoon of Hungarian origin, arrives at the Greenwich Village apartment of his illegitimate son, Basil, for a business meeting to discuss a highly-profitable merger

After achieving apparent success he finds everything collapsing around him and learns from Basil that a warrant is out for his arrest

Basil offers help, but Gregor acquires a conscience for the first time in his life and determines his own way out

“... compelling drama” ~ Independent

” ... the play does two things that were always Rattigan’s special forte: it enthrals its audience for two and a half hours and it penetrates the sad mysteries of the human heart to expose the terrible damage that love can do” ~ Daily Telegraph
