Rafts and Dreams & Outside the Whale

Rafts and Dreams & Outside the Whale 'Robert Holman is the quiet man among modern British dramatists. But his new play...is an outstanding work that sings with truth' (Michael Billington, Guardian)Rafts and Dreams: 'While digging up the roots of a tree in the garden, Neil, Leo and Hetty uncover a vast underground lake which floods away the world. With Leo at the tiller of his sawn-away living room, the trio begin a voyage of the earth's watery surface. It is a surrealist fantasy at its most thought-provoking, a play whose best bits manage to work like a dream' (Paul Taylor, Independent).Outside the Whale is a fictional account of the writer George Orwell set in the early 30s in which the action moves easily over a period of three years and settings as various as the basement warehouse of the publishers Victor Gollancz, a hen-hut in Essex and the dosshouse in Romford.
