-The play is said to be a social satire that interrogates the relationship to the other and to the body, its secretions, its materiality. A kind of a pastiche of J. B. Priestley's 1945 play An Inspector Calls, it is set in a house where no one can escape, the toilets are clogged, and excrement becomes evident on stage.
