In the early 1960's, excentric American writer Patricia Highsmith (Strangers on a Train) came to live in a cottage in Earl Soham to write a crime novel based in Suffolk. Living nearby was local writer Ronald Blythe, about to embark on his definitive verbatim account of the changes in farming between the wars  (Akenfield) This play is the story of their strange and unlikely relationship.Â
"A play with music which celebrates Suffolk, especially the coast and the call of the county to artists and writers." See Suffolk Theatre Review  HERE
