Introduction
Four friends discuss, given the choice of a long prison sentence or the death penalty, which would they choose. A challenge is laid down - ten years of incarceration and win a fortune or fail and lose your property.
The Bet was our first indoor performance since the start of the Covid-19 "Lockdown". The Thursday performance was streamed live via YouTube, the first SLT production to do so.
