We are very excited to welcome Hawtheatre to our fab The Mall Theatre with this beautiful production. Friday May 22nd.
The play follows a chance meeting between two men on a late-night boat train to London. Through the intervention of a mysterious Gypsy woman who shares their carriage, the men gradually discover their true relationship — as father and long-abandoned son. As well as being a story based on the truth of recent history, the play is a gripping, edge of the seat drama, full of surprises, twists, and laughs.
