The evening consists of 2 wry plays exploring our fascination with the Cambridge soviet spies:
An Englishman Abroad - an imagining of the real meeting between actor Coral Browne and Guy Burgess in his Moscow apartment.
A Question of Attribution - a portrait of the spy Anthony Blunt at Buckingham Palace including an interrogation by the Queen.
