In this ingenious commingling of darkness and high comedy, the bland, peculiar and quietly desperate inhabitants of the local mall go about their days, unaware that a food court attendant is planning their destruction. Dean''s Diary tracks the would-be film-maker''s progress through tedious days in a dead-end job in the cinema complex alleviated by attempts to find the right medication and sneaking into the tail end of movies he is certain he could make better "sitting on the crapper". His general fantasies of death and destruction -- which make him feel strangely alive -- are accompanied by a more specific desire to kill his hated supervisor and/or their bigger boss, Adam. Sound bites of breaking news clips surf across the dial, bookend and punctuate the 11 days the play covers, characterising a wider world awash in often violent events over which we have no control, to which we too easily become acclimatised and inured. (1 act, 3 male, 3 female).
