'Con' by Gavin McGibbon is on at Circa Theatre

The PhD (Creative Writing) candidate's 'accomplished and daring' new play runs until 23 November.

If you could get away with it how far would you go?

They have a knack for it. They get people to do what they shouldn't. And now here's their chance to make money like never before.

Stevie and Earle have been waiting for this for years; all their tricks and their schemes have built to this. A con so wicked it's totally irresistible. Will they pull it off and what will be the consequences?

Playwright Gavin McGibbon makes his Circa debut with his seventh play; described as his most accomplished and daring piece of work yet.
