AUDITION NOTICE: Accidental Death of an Anarchist - Villanova Players Theatre

Title: Accidental Death of an Anarchist

Presented By: Villanova Players

Genre: Comedy, Political Satire


Synopsis: A quick-witted madman infiltrates a police station to expose the suspicious “accidental” death of a political prisoner. With outrageous disguises, farcical comedy, and razor-sharp satire, the play unravels corruption, chaos, and absurdity in the justice system. As the line between truth and farce blurs, the play asks: is justice even possible in a world this corrupt?
