About the Show

A gripping and enigmatic mystery that hasn’t been seen in Washington in years, An Inspector Calls is playwright J.B Priestley’s probe into mutual responsibilities and the tragic consequences of ignoring them.

When the Birling family gathers to celebrate a daughter’s engagement to a young man from a “good” family, their complacent satisfaction is shattered by the unexpected arrival of a police inspector who seems to know the answers to all his questions before they are asked! His increasingly painful interrogation sparks the family’s growing awareness of their joint complicity in a terrible act, and their failure to live up to their smug self-image tears away what’s left of their illusions.
