Produktbeschreibung

This collection of claustrophobic stage dramas begins with 'Chalk for Cheese', a play about guilt, loss and reconciliation between a father and son, with a distinctly peculiar resolution. 'Stitching the Cherry' is a three-act family drama, again centered on the unfinished business of guilt and loss, this time between two rival siblings. The third play, 'Walking Through Wire' is the only one to be staged to date (2014), and tackles the subject of homosexuality, both in Germany's Belsen-Bergen concentration camp, and in Great Britain with code-breaker Alan Turing, during the Second World War. 'This is a sharply acted, stripped-back play that lays bare some difficult questions about the barbarism of human nature,' said Anna Croft Sawa of the Camden Review. David Hennessy of the Irish World added, 'this is a play with the emphasis on performance and such productions are always enjoyable.'

Autorenporträt

Gary Kittle is the author of thirteen eBooks. He was twice shortlisted for the Essex Book Festival Short Story Competition and his play 'Walking Through Wire' was staged (and filmed) in London in 2014. Many of his shorter screenplays have been filmed by Film Colchester and DT Film Productions. 'Data Protection', written by Gary for Dan Allen Films, was shortlisted for the Sci-fi London 48 Hour Film Competition. He has won the 1000 Word Challenge with 'The Uncertainty Principle', and twice been shortlisted, finishing runner-up with 'Kismet'. He was also runner-up in the Storgy Halloween Short Story Competition with 'The Gag Reflex'. He is also the author of a serial horror novel, 'A Town Called Benny', with episodes published fortnightly. Outside of self-publishing, Gary is also heavily involved with DT Film Productions. Their first full feature film, Dragged Up Dirty, on which Gary is an executive producer is due for release in 2023. The full-length documentary, Hearts Without Homes, on which Gary contributed as a writer, is also out this year.
'Crowded House' follows on from the success of 'The Hanging Rail'.
Gary lives and writes in Wivenhoe, Essex, and strongly suspects that given his frantic writing schedule, he has developed the ability to travel through time.
