Inspired by real life mysteries: David Thames acclaimed one-act thriller Kompromat in a double bill with his tense and atmospheric new play, London/Budapest. In London/Budapest its 1955. Adam de Hegedus, the secretive author of Britains first gay bestseller The Heart in Exile, takes his afternoon sauna pick-up to a Pimlico flat. But this is the cold war: Burgess and Maclean have just defected to the Soviet Union. Espionage is everywhere, paranoia too. And a casual encounter can cost you your life. Kompromat a hit at the Vaults Festival last year is inspired by the 2010 death of Gareth Williams, whose body was found zipped into a sports bag in the bathroom of his Pimlico flat. Its protagonist is brilliant with numbers, but hopeless at reading people including the beautiful young man he has invited into his bedroom. Spy Plays features two one act plays parted by one interval.
