'Something's rotten in the state of Illinois!'
The once renowed gangster, Urturo Ui, is forging his way back into power with the help of his right hand man, Ernesto Roma and a mob of eagerly awaiting men.
What does this mean for the vegetable dealers and the financial district of Chicago?
What ensues is a sometimes brutal, sometimes comic and sometimes shocking piece of epic theatre with a twenty-first century twist.
actorsworkshop returns to the stage with an incredible tale of power, corruption, greed, misguided logic and a chillingly relevant message for modern audiences.
