Light Delay

Light Delay was chosen from over 300 plays submitted to us from all over the world. It is a new play, written by Jessica Andrewartha, who is based Seattle USA.

Dr. Triona Fitton is working alone in Mission Control to help secure the last minute launch of the colony ships that will take humanity to the stars. On the lead ship is Major Lucas Barnes, her ex-fiancé. Light Delay tells the story both of humanity’s last chance to spread into the universe and the consequences it has for those left on Earth. From the personal conflicts of the former lovers to environmental disaster, the play examines the choices of two people and the world of consequences those decisions create.

Performed 9th - 11th May 2019 at The Dovehouse Theatre, Solihull.
