Canadian Drama Performed in a Moving Car

Name a theater where the back row has the best seats in the house? Ok, now name one that stops for gas.

At Scotland's Edinburgh Fringe Festival, the play A Mobile Thriller is set in a luxury sports sedan — literally. During the hour-long show, the audience takes a back seat to the actor (can we get any more puns out of this story?), David Walshe, who performs the play, written by playwright Renato Gabrielli, as the show's producer drives, silently. The plot, during which the audience of three is driven to specific locations, involves a man (Walshe) who appears to have it all, but is harboring a dark secret.

I hope they schedule a stop at a Circle K for intermission.
