  Three siblings plot to kill their parents in this controversial masterpiece. In the game-playing scenarios the siblings invent, they play the parts of the parents, policemen and judges. This play provides a dramatic allegory of the political situation in Cuba in the 1960s, with its call to revolution echoed in the children's need to overcome their fear and turn convention upside down.
  Taken from the collection, Latin American Plays, an essential introduction to the fascinating but largely unexplored theatre of Latin America, Night of the Assassins by José Triana is both controversial and compelling.
  The full collection features new translations of five contemporary plays written by some of the region's most exciting writers. Each play is accompanied by an illuminating interview with its author conducted by the theatre director, Sebastian Doggart, who has also selected and translated the plays and provided an introductory history of Latin American drama.
  The collection also includes:
  Rappaccini's Daughter by Octavio Paz
  
  A play by the Mexican Nobel laureate.
  Saying Yes by Griselda Gambaro
  
  A grotesque comedy from Argentina about man's inhumanity to man.
  Orchids in the Moonlight by Carlos Fuentes
  
  A dream play about two Mexican women exiled in Hollywood's maze of mirrors.
  Mistress of Desires by Mario Vargas Llosa
  
  Peru's most acclaimed writer interweaves reality and fantasy in an erotically charged tale.

  Agnes Grey is the daughter of a minister, whose family comes to financial ruin. Desperate to earn money to care for herself, she takes one of the few jobs allowed to respectable women in the early Victorian era, as a governess to the children of the wealthy. In working with two different families, the Bloomfields and the Murrays, she comes to learn about the troubles that face a young woman who must try to rein in unruly, spoiled children for a living, and about the ability of wealth and status to destroy social values. After her father's death, Agnes opens a small school with her mother and finds happiness with a man who loves her for herself. (Summary by Wikipedia)
