Port City Signature

Know where you are? No. But I know where the train will be. In this tightly-wound noir thriller written by Nathaniel Brimmer-Beller ( In Everglade Studio , Press , Blood Red Apples & Deep Gold Honey ), four characters navigate shifting alliances in the middle of the night in a seaside pub. A newcomer has missed her train. She waits for the next one, the last of the night, in a quiet pub near the station. Before long, a charming regular begins to chat. He soon proposes a deal to her, involving a gun, a hefty payout, and fleeing on the approaching train. As the evening ticks by, the regular and the bartender try to sweeten the deal, the port city''s sadistic sheriff makes an appearance, and as the train whistle gets closer, the newcomer must decide.This edition was published to coincide with the world premiere at London''s Hope Theatre in September 2024, reopening the Hope as the first full-length play of its new era.>
