The Letter of Last Resort & Tales from Star City
The Soviet Union. 1967.
The Space Race is at its height. One woman at the centre of it all looks back on her dreams of being part of the great Communist movement during one of the most dramatic decades of the Cold War.
Some time later, on the other side of the Iron Curtain, the new Prime Minister is working late into the night when she is interrupted by a request - a letter needs to be written.
It can only say one of two things, but its implications could change the face of the earth forever
This double-bill of short plays explores the brightest and darkest moments of recent history through two tautly written and gripping dramas.
It will leave you questioning the nature of power and asking how our political beliefs can really change our lives - and the world.
Unfortunately one of the cast members has tested positive for Covid 19 and is not very well therefore we have no alternative other than to cancel tomorrow night’s performance.
We are hoping to reschedule the show to later in month as, the show is touring throughout the UK until the end of the month.
