Plot
Summary: With a
cast of two, Wheels of Justice
presents an intense dramatic confrontation
between Charles and Bruce, brothers who as
adults have had little to do
with each other. Charles, a pragmatist, has
made a great success of the
family business, while Bruce made a stab at
a career in stand-up comedy
but now faces a prison term for vehicular
manslaughter.
Charles
tries to convince
Bruce to fight the charges against him. As
they rehash old grievances and
reveal a great deal about their lives and
their differing values, the brothers
begin to express some level of understanding
and caring about each other.
But when Bruce discovers Charles’s true
agenda in wanting him to fight,
it confirms his decision to accept his fate
in an attempt to rebuild his
life.
Although
there is comedy in
Bruce’s self-protective wry humor and
Charles’s attempts to seem less stiff
and conservative, the play offers a
rewarding challenge for the two-actor
cast in a non-stop sparring match between
two strong and strongly contrasting
personalities.
