Quiz by James Graham

Very sharp, comedic drama that revisits the infamous 2001 "coughing scandal" on the British TV show Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?. The play centers on Charles Ingram, a former army major who won the million-pound jackpot, only to be accused of cheating when suspicious coughs from the audience. Blending courtroom tension with game-show glitz, the story unfolds through the trial that gripped the nation, questioning guilt, innocence, and the blurred line between entertainment and justice. Graham cleverly incorporates audience participation, inviting viewers to vote on Ingrams fate, while satirizing Britains obsession with quiz shows and media sensationalism. "Quiz" is a witty exploration of truth, deception, and the thrill of the game.
