A biting and satirical play about a hedge fund manager dealing with the financial crash and his brilliant but troubled assistant. Fearing that his world is about to cave in after the collapse of his firm, he is trying to ensure that there will be no withdrawals from his fund. Meanwhile, his Alpha, a brilliant young mathematician responsible for the company's staggering success is just back from a sabbatical following her “episode”. Surprised and ambivalent about her presence, he quickly realizes that she is there with a hidden agenda of her own. Mackenzie’s breathtaking use of language and his incisive take on the global economy are sure to delight.
