The Deep Blue Sea - Autumn 2004
16th to 18th and 23rd to 25th September 2004
Location: Cordes Hall, Sunninghill, SL5 9NE
Directed by: Rebecca Wire
Written by: Terence Rattigan
When Hester Collyer is found by her neighbours in the aftermath of a failed suicide attempt, the story of her tempestuous affair with a former RAF pilot and the breakdown of her marriage to a High Court judge begins to emerge. With it comes a portrait of need, loneliness and long-repressed passion. Behind the fragile veneer of post-war civility burns a brutal sense of loss and longing.
