Notes: Production first seen on the 2002 Edinburgh Fringe as The Legend of Squadron 463
Synopsis: The surviving members of a Lancaster Bomber crew shelter in a deserted school in Holland. One of their number is mortally wounded, the rest cold and shattered. They must keep each other going through the night with humour and camaraderie. "As comical as it is haunting. . . . Debut Theatre Company's production maintains a perfect balance of humour and urgency throughout." Time Out. "An involving piece of theatre handled effortlessly.. The dialogue's great with a nice line in humour and there's an unexpected twist at the end." **** The Scotsman

Synopsis: Arthur Penman is a nobody. He works for the reputable firm of Singleton, Drab and Gray. But one night he returns home to find a beautiful woman waiting for him. An actress. He is whipped up into a world of theatre, writing, dreaming and ultimately madness. "The great joy of the Festival is discovering groups and writers youd not come across before. Funny, touching and riotously inventive, this tautly scripted, superbly performed gem was head and shoulders above many big name, big budget productions elsewhere in the Festival. The company are clearly names to watch." The Irish Post. "Thirty seconds into this production, I could feel the tension in my shoulders loosen, the corners of my mouth upturn into a half-smile and my every muscle relax, secure in the knowledge that I was in the presence of accomplished performers who were going to enchant me with their fairytale, without a single line-fluff, a glimpse of over-acting or self indulgence."

The gift of a video camera takes the brothers on an unexpected journey, as Alex sets out to make a documentary about love. But a violent strategy pushes Tom to the limits of his own strength. Alex must venture after him, into uncharted territory, where love is all-consuming and obliterates the landscape like a snowstorm.
