Set in Russia shortly after the Revolution, Stephen Poliakoff's
intriguing and moving play has an autobiographical background in
that it is inspired by what happened to his own family in Russia.
Produced first by the RSC at the Pit and later transferring to the
Mermaid the play follows the material and spiritual adjustments the
upper middle class Pesiakoff family has to make to their life when
they are forced to live in a railway carriage for many years.
Although ostensibly employed as Telephone Examiner, father spends
his time and government money on trying to record sound on to film.
With the death of Lenin, however, the research must be abandoned
and the family is forced to flee.
