Did you ever wonder what would happen if you discovered that your dog could talk? Or maybe even sing? As well? Struggling actor Stephen McCann, finding himself picked up by a hairy stray in the local supermarket, also discovers his new four-footed friend while not capable of lucid speech is incredibly and amazingly able to sing - and not only sing well but in tune, too - which all seems more than a little odd to Stephen, but then so too is the simply drop dead and beautiful Estelle, a young woman who enters his life coincidentally enough the same time as the strangely talented dog does. Are the two events connected? And how come Stephen - a connoisseur of beautiful girls - has never noticed that Estelle and her somewhat odd flat mate have been living across the hall from him since it would seem time immemorial? All is revealed as McCann finds himself involved in a moment of time that could indeed change the very shape of the entire planet....

Crossing The Line (Paperback): Terence Brady Crossing The Line (Paperback)

Crossing The Line When the factory opened in 1981, hopes were high that John Delorean's revolutionary gull-wing the sports car would create a much needed industry boost for Northern Ireland, the troubled province being the centre of a new and ever more violent breakout of The Troubles. The 660,000 square foot site chosen by DeLorean on which to purpose build his factory sat in a bog on the outskirts of the troubled towns of Dunmurry and Twinbrook. Building began in October 1978 and was completed only 16 months later. Hundreds of workers were employed there as the government offered John DeLorean financial incentives to build his dream car on the outskirts of Belfast and the resulting gull-wing sports car the maverick manufacturer and designer chose to build there on British taxpayers' money became both famous as well as notorious, the sports car appearing in movies, video games, and television shows and was immortalised in the cult movie Back to The Future - despite the terrible and troubled history of the company that built it. Manufacture of the DeLorean car started in 1981, but fewer than 9,000 cars were produced for the American market but these cars were so badly designed and built that the company collapsed a year after the plant had been opened. Seven of the men who helped build this car signed their names on one of the last gull wing doors made under the inscription 'The end of a dream - or is it?' - seemingly in the faint hope that despite the Troubles in Northern Ireland there might still be hope for a better and more settled future, a future they had initially been assured would not only benefit them, but their families, community and their country. Most remarkably, since the closure of Harland and Woolf, the great shipyard in Belfast, this was the first time Catholics and Protestants had worked side by side in the North or Ireland, which they did peacefully and amicably - until the fateful moment that Bobby Sands died as a result of his hunger strike and with his death came a fresh and terrible outbreak of violence and with it an end to the hopes and dreams of the work force. This play tells that story through the eyes of the workers, the owners and the management of the factory, and the British who saw a chance to take political advantage of the troubled province. It is also a modern day Romeo and Juliet story for at its heart lies the doomed and blighted romance of a young Catholic girl and her Protestant boy-friend.

Philip Bartels, an old friend of Peter Harding's, calls him out of the blue for advice about his marriage, a call that unwittingly sets them both out on a fateful journey, for the shy and respectable Philip - Barty to his friends - has met and fallen in love with the tempestuous Lorna but finds himself unable to leave his dull but loving wife. Peter offers some advice but after he too has met the passionate Lorna he also finds himself in love and begins to manipulate events in order to satisfy his own desires, finally with devastating and fateful results. The play is based on one of thriller writer John Bingham's masterpieces, FIVE ROUNDABOUTS TO HEAVEN, an enormously exciting story of crime and passion which according to John Le Carre should be recognised as one of the last centuries great psychological thrillers.

R162 Discovery Miles 1 620 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Four friends gather regularly to play Bridge, a habit formed over the years, but sadly one of their number, Isobel, has been recently widowed and her oldest friend Vic is taking steps to try and rehabilitate the still grief struck Isobel against the counsel of her husband Jimmy who deems it all too early. Vic persists and when the play opens it is the first time Isobel has ventured out let alone sat at a cards table since losing her husband. But now there is a new face in the game, Hugh, who just happens to have known Isobel in her youth. Hugh is recently married to the seemingly quiet and well-ordered Mary, who turns out to be someone with quite a different agenda altogether, and as with Mary's help Isobel begins to find her emotional feet once more, the god of Disorder takes charge and mayhem emotional and physical ensues before chaos is banished and peace and normality return to everyone's lives as the cards are picked up once more as the game of life moves on. Although set around a bridge game, the play is nothing to do with the game itself but is about the characters who meet to play who have all known each other as it emerges for most of their lives. Far from being about cards the play is about love, friendship, loss, redemption and rehabilitation. For audience and cast alike it requires absolutely no knowledge of bridge at all, only an interest in humanity and how we all try and cope with the hardest hand of all to play - the loss of a loved one.
