“AND A NIGHTINGALE SANG” – Amidst the unimaginable conflict that swamped the entire globe, this family seeks to do the right thing, for themselves and their community. 6 Sept – 21 Sept, 2024

written by C.P. Taylor

This play tells of the loves, fears and joys of a Newcastle family during World War Two.

Helen is stoical, self-effacing and walks with a limp; her grandfather Andie recruits mourners to attend the burial of his dog; her devout Catholic mother frets about the local priest’s health; her father serenades an unwilling audience with popular songs; and younger sister Joyce dithers over a marriage proposal.
They all try their best to get on with their lives while the bombs fall around them.

Boy meets Girl. Girl likes Boy. Flirting ensues. The chemistry’s real. She’s a German bartender, he’s an Aussie backpacker. Back at her Berlin loft, the dance of desire intensifies. But all is not what it seems and sparks soon become barbs.
