We loved Complicité, (or Théâtre de Complicité as it was then known) back then. This joint production with West Yorkshire Playhouse at the Young Vic was perhaps not their best work.
It is based on a J M Coetzee novel which is basically a sequel to Robinson Crusoe.
We found it impenetrable.
It seems we weren’t alone with that feeling. Michael Billington reviewed it thusly:

Michael Coveney got on with Foe a bit better it seems:
