Moonshadow
By Steve Hennessy
23rd June – 19th July 2009
Tues - Sat @ 7:30pm, Sunday 5:00pm
Presented by Partisan Theatre, Mental Fight Club, Stepping Out, Fallen Angel, The White Bear and Simon James Collier
11 minutes past 11, August 11th 1999 ... John is determined to get down to Cornwall for the total eclipse. Not easy when you're sectioned in a secure ward. But he knows he has to be there - it says so in the Book of Revelations. And Judy wants to help him now. By playing Madame Butterfly. Meanwhile a life and death drama is being played out between the psychiatrist treating them both and one of the nurses ... As the eclipse draws near, the hospital becomes a cosmic battleground. Light and darkness. Life and death. Good and evil. Madness and sanity. The last apocalyptic battle.
"Highly enjoyable studio theatre entertainment."
– Barbara Lewis, The Stage on Dracula
