War is Hell. Negotiating Peace can be worse.

A decade after the Soviet Union's unraveling began, a small, unnamed Eastern European country is in flames as two ethnic peoples brutally battle for control of their "country". In Finland, in what looks like the stylish home of a very modern European family, a peace negotiation begins. Travelling to these talks are bloody freedom fighters and their oppressive government's military leaders. Will the Peace Talks take? Or has the battlefield simply changed locations.

"No dramatist has written with more intelligence and moral passion than Edgar, about the still unfolding consequences of the disintegration of the Soviet Union." - The Times

"As riveting and enjoyable as any play in London." - The Guardian

"This must be seen." - The Daily Telegraph
