Synopsis: | "The fires will be burning in Udaipur tonight. . . "The British Raj in India is coming to an end. In the twilight of history, an entrenched colonial family prepares its last supper. Eve has been missing all day. On the eve of James' departure for England, the family gathers for a final farewell. Tempers fray as the oppressive heat of day climaxes in the stifling darkness of the Indian night. Someone is harbouring a dark secret. Outside, a storm is brewing. This poignant snapshot of a decaying empire is a pertinent reminder of the bonds of family, the power of love, and the struggle for identity that burns within. "Nothing is ever really yours here. No matter how many times we stamp things, nothing is really British." Patrick Garety's lyrical new play comes to the ADC in a haunting and evocative production which celebrates the fervour of youth, and how the choices of a moment can shape our lives. | |||||

Synopsis: | Fra Filippo Lippi is born lucky. He has a talent beyond any of his peers. He is set to be one of his generation's greatest artists. Escaping his monastery, he is captured by pirates. Escaping imprisonment, he gains the patronage of the Florence's most powerful citizen, Cosimo de' Medici. Winning the favour of even the Pope himself, Filippo's uncontrollable lust sees him thrown into confinement. Escaping once again, he must flee from Florence to pursue his art - and his mischievous love affairs. All is well until, for once, love strikes true. . . "You're dying for it - someone to knock the brains out of you till all the tatters of your wasted life are left spread across the floor, moist and glistening from the spoils of your body" | |||||
