April 1967: Greece is in political turmoil. Charlotte and Theo have retreated to a small island in search of peace and inspiration. But when they meet a charismatic American couple at the port they are seduced into making choices with devastating consequences. This funny and passionate new play by Alexi Kaye Campbell spans a decade as it explores the impact of foreign influence, planned and unintentional, on a nation and its people.

Sam Crane's previous theatre credits include Dissonant (National Theatre), Farinelli in Farinelli and the King (Shakespeare's Globe/ West End) and Headlong's 1984 (Playhouse Theatre/ West End). His television credits include Fred Walters in Desperate Romantics and Call The Midwife (BBC).
