'We can't all just be hurtling through nothing towards
nowhere...can we?' A young couple are moving into their new home. A
soldier is being held hostage. Two boys are searching for monsters.
All these things are connected by both family and time but what
story can be told when family and time are broken? Set over the
course of twelve years, Shivered unpicks the story of two families
and then re-weaves it into something new and startling. Seven
people, one war, a derelict car plant and mysterious lights in the
sky come together in the Essex new-town of Draylingstowe, where the
view from green hills once offered hope and prosperity for all. An
oblique and startlingly anachronistic piece, the timeframe is an
emotional, rather than linear sequence, reflecting the characters'
broken memories and shattered lives. Depicting a panorama of people
and time, connecting links of friendship, family and encounters
eddy around each other in a tantalising, surprising and intelligent
way. Shivered is a state of the nation play meets a dreamlike
memory play.
