Prisoner's Friend, The

Synopsis:
It is 1982 and the outbreak of the Falklands Crisis. James Farringdon has received a letter from the grandson of a man he once tried to defend at Court Martial during the First World War, and whose death he witnessed following the man's conviction for 'casting away arms'. He struggles with painful memories as he writes in reply. The piece deals with themes of forgotten memory, belief and the nature of forgiveness.

Notes:
The piece requires very little by way of staging - it is set in the front room or study of A single retired pastor who lives modestly. For A script sample please email At the Above Address.
