Foul Play is a razor-edged, darkly comic two-hander where nothing and no one are quite what they seem.

At its centre is Ava Sterling—composed, magnetic, and impossible to read. When she glides into a bar and strikes up a conversation with Larry Fernandes, a silver-tongued man in his fifties, the stage is set for a night that defies expectations.

What begins as casual conversation soon unfolds into a finely tuned exchange of glances, stories, and subtle shifts in power. Larry may think he’s leading the dance, but Ava’s intentions run deeper than they appear. As the night progresses, masks slip, and the line between predator and prey blurs beyond recognition.

Blending classic noir with sharp humour and modern edge, Foul Play dives into the delicate art of manipulation, the danger of assumptions and the thrill of not knowing who's really pulling the strings.
