The Drawer Boy
Directed by Dee Easton.
Sometimes the journey is within.
A charmingly delicate comedy where one youth's self-discovery in the impetus for two old friends to examine their past. Morgan and Angus - childhood friends and war veterans share a mysterious secret buried under a comfortable but hard-working life on the land. Their routines are interrupted by the arrival of Miles - an ambitious city actor who stays with them to research farming life at first-hand for a play that he is writing.
What ensues is an achingly funny battle between age and experience, youth and ideals, city and country life.
No-one knows just how much they are about to learn from each other as the lines blur between memory and reality, theatre and life.
Featuring Roger Newcombe, Peter Green and Russell Hutchinson
An uplifting comedy about the power of story telling and friendship
