Accidental Death of an Anarchist

Accidental Death of an Anarchist Book Description

"I ought to warn you that the author of this sick little play, Dario Fo, has the traditional, irrational hatred of the police common to all narrowminded left-wingers and so I shall, no doubt, be the unwilling butt of endless anti-authoritarian jibes"-Inspector Bertozzo, Central Italian Police HQ

In its first two years of production, Fo's notorious Accidental Death of an Anarchist was seen by over half a million people. It has since been performed all over the world and become a classic. A sharp and hilarious satire on police corruption, it concerns the case of an anarchist railway worker who, in 1969, "fell" to his death from a police headquarters window.

"A marvelous concept: a zany political farce..."-Michael Billington, Guardian

"Fo's play absorbs social indignation into mainstream Italian comedy"-Irving Wardle, The Times
