Pack of Lies

by Hugh Whitemore

 

 

This play is based on the the true story of Peter and Helen Groker who, in 1961, were arrested and convicted of spying for the Russians and the tale is told through the eyes of the Jackson family - Bob, Barbara and their teenage daughter Julie - the Krogers' closest friends! First the Jacksons receive a phone call followed by a visit from MI5, requesting the use of their home as a surveillance post. The last they thing they expect when they agree is that the focus point of MI5 is the Krogers. The lives of the Jacksons are slowly shattered as Barbara finds that lying to her friends rips her apart emotionally and physically.
