Brief Taste Of Lightning, A

Synopsis:
Gath and Gertie live together as a couple in their own quiet corner of modernity. They work hard, live well enough and share with us all something of the relentless modern pursuit of happiness and meaning to life. The play opens onto the scene of a relaxing Sunday morning in their lives. But then Gath happens to open his newspaper onto a page of unfortunate news, and Gertie suddenly recalls she has come home the previous night from a wedding party they both attended without any shoes

Strange Voyage Of Donald Crowhurst, The

Synopsis:
The Strange Voyage of Donald Crowhurst is based on the true story of the English amateur boatsman who disappeared in the mid-atlantic eight months into a round-the-world race in 1968. He had apparently committed suicide. Logbooks revealed that his radioed claims earlier in the race to be nearing the Cape of Good Hope were false: having realised his rickety boat would not survive the voyage, he hid off the coast of argentina and faked a heroic journey, then lost his nerve and perhaps his mind.
Karen Fricker, The Guardian
