About this ebook
Both plays, "The Cemetery" and 'The Confession", should be performed together in one evening, as a double-bill. "The Cemetery" follows "The Confession". The MAN and TRENT are performed by the same actor. Each play is performed without an intermission. The scenes are changed quickly in full view of the audience to J.S.Bach’s "Art of the Fugue".
Pen Avram
This one-time piano mechanic turned Master of Applied Science (Critical Enquiry/Social Ecology) fled to the West from the former Soviet bloc, finally finding his home in Australia. Growing up in a family touched by the horrors of the holocaust and communism, Pen Avram has spent his life studying what drives people of different faiths around the world to act the way they do. His insights now inform the mysteries investigated by the intrepid team of Kroupa and Hendrych. And Sara is a real dog, blood an bones.
