Doing research for our show on the Titanic radio-operators, we discovered many awkward exchanges caused by Senator Smith at the American Inquest. Here is one of them, with Officer Lowe, about what icebergs are made of.

Meet the voice of Captain Smith (Paul Giggins) in "CQD To SOS: A Titanic Story"

It's 12:15AM, April 15th, 1912. Titanic has hit an iceberg.

In approximately two hours, over 2,000 people will be in the freezing water of the Atlantic Ocean, with survival counted in minutes. Their lives depend on three men – Titanic radio operators Jack Phillips and Harold Bride, and Carpathia radio operator Harold Cottam – and the radio set that broke the day before.

Fate has placed Phillips, Bride and Cottam, three working men doing a job, at the centre of one of the biggest peace-time tragedies of the twentieth century.

Check out these pictures and review quotes for Jane Austen's Love And Freindship [Sic], opening this Saturday as part of the PBH Free Fringe!

Written when she was just a teenager, Love and Freindship [sic] is like no other Jane Austen story. Prepare for protagonists casually starving their parents to death, women fainting so often it's a deadly hazard, improbable revelations of parentage, dramatic (or underwhelming) death scenes, and, of course, the basis of real love being entirely that your parents don't approve.

Some quotes from our previews of [Parent]ified, which you can catch next week at the Royal Scots Club.

Sissy is 25 but, in a way, she has always been an adult. When a call from her sister, Bug, arrives in the night, Sissy must come to terms with all the years that came before. As the lines between childhood and parenthood continue to blur, the messy threads of a childhood cut short begin to unravel, and hopes for a better future may be rooted in the past. A five-star reviewed, deeply vulnerable and beautifully acted play about being parentified, and the messy threads of a childhood cut short.

Parentified is one of only two of our shows you can book ahead for!
