Chicago. 1957. Four cops, of different ages, classes and races, all suspicious of each other, must grab a gangster turned state witness before the Mob can get him. Outside their office, the world is changing. The Civil Rights movement. Race riots. Mass consumerism. Rock 'n' Roll. Elvis has arrived. Sex is everywhere. Cops was inspired by real-life events in the often brutal and corrupt world of 1950's Chicago policing and mob violence. With wit, humour and razor-sharp, fast-moving dialogue, this emotionally powerful and poignant play movingly reveals the men's personal stories.
