Nominated as Best Production for the Manchester Evening
News Theatre Awards.
Set on the eroding cliff edge of a remote English coastal town that's crumbling into the sea "Zero Degrees & Drifting" is about love, refuge and the benefits of having a toy monkey as your only friend.
It's the story of a young couple in a lighthouse measuring weather and conserving fish, a pirate DJ on a boat broadcasting missing person adverts 24/7 and a broken, bruised, beautiful stranger washed up on a beach.
Zero Degress and Drifting' was our eleventh new show and our third collaboration with our co-producers Sheffield Theatres. The production received additional support from The Corn Exchange, Newbury.
