OUTLYING ISLANDS
STAGE MANAGER
KINGS HEAD THEATRE, JANUARY 2019
ATTICIST
I have noticed that something draws us towards outlying islands. Some force pulls…
1939, Scotland. Two young ornithologists arrive on a remote island, tasked by the government to conduct a simple study of the bird population. With only the island’s authoritarian leaseholder and his niece for company, they find themselves drawn to the wild isolation of the place and begin to suspect their mission is not all it seems.
As the clouds of war gather over Europe, one rocky outcrop in the vast Atlantic can decide its own fate. Boundaries begin to crumble. Life becomes beautiful and strange.
