Loyalty

About the Play

“Loyalty exists when what you stand to lose is greater than what you stand to gain… You keep thinking about cheating, but you cannot do it…”

“Even when two people are locked together, sometimes they cannot truly connect… They live by feeding on one another like two microbes…”

An unhappy marriage is moving toward murder… Margaret knows that her husband Jack is cheating on her. Day by day she sinks into a deeper psychological collapse, seeking consolation in medication and alcohol…

Jack hires a hitman to get rid of Margaret and collect a large insurance payout… Tony will kill Margaret; Jack will become the sole owner of a fortune and live comfortably with his lover Debbie…

Tony is a hitman with a very dark past whose severe traumas have shattered his mental health… He owes the mafia a considerable gambling debt, and Jack’s payment could save him from grave danger…

The play lays bare a panorama of these three troubled characters amid money, survival, and love.
