For anybody who despairs at the latest reality television show to fall off the conveyor belt, turn off your TV set and do something less boring instead.

Tramp TV is a searing indictment of a society glued to trashy reality shows.

The plot centres on the volatile relationship between twin brothers David and Jason, born from a love rivalry and a desire to be their father Frank's "blue-eyed boy".

Except Frank himself is not a role model in the traditional sense, having murdered their mother and acquired young fiance Natasha through reality show "Date A Convict".

On his release from prison, Frank is wooed by television executives thirsty for his reality show ideas, such as putting guntoting gangsters and yardies in a Big Brother-style house and waiting for the inevitable bloodbath.

Anchored by an impressive pairing of Ben Richardson and Max Day, the cast shine in this black comedy performed in the most intimate of settings.

Richard Hawley as Frank brings the stage alive with his foul-mouthed put-downs, and Angelina Reilly-Szostak is the perfect foil as his tart.

The characters are shocking yet strangely familiar, an ominous prophecy of what happens if the power over what we watch gets into the wrong hands. As Frank says: "Television is power". Pass the remote please.
