My zinc bed

David Hare's 'My Zinc Bed' continues the run of work in which he has sought to describe the atmosphere of contemporary Britain. A successful entrepreneur, Victor Quinn, employs a young poet, Paul Peplow, to decorate the legend of his fast-growing Internet business. Nothing prepares either man for an outcome which makes for a compelling story of romance and addiction. 'My Zinc Bed' was first presented at the Royal Court Theatre, London, in September 2000.
