The Wasp by Morgan Lloyd Malcolm, Olivier Award-winning British playwright, arrives in Italy for the first time, in its original language. After more than ten years, two former school friends meet over coffee. What seems to be a simple reunion soon turns into a shocking proposition: a pact to settle the score with a trauma that has never truly been overcome. Through psychological tension and a desire for revenge, the play explores the fragility of memory, the weight of past wounds, and the blurred boundary between justice and vengeance.
