Served

This is an absurdist broad black comedy that looks at the effectiveness of New Zealand’s penal system, through the eyes of Ed Kingi. Ed is trapped in a gloriously orange and tan clad 1970s mansion that heaves with gravy. Despite Al’s best efforts to push Ed into the outside world, Aunty’s cooking and Sonny’s brittle health keep Ed locked in the misty-eyed homestead. But when Doug drops in, uninvited, Ed is forced to make a decision he has been putting off for 15 years.
