Titanic Theatre at the Roe!

On April 15 1912, the Titanic, the greatest ship in the world, slipped below the frigid waters of the Atlantic. Yet, J. Bruce Ismay, Managing Director of the White Star Line, stepped into a lifeboat and sailed away from the disaster unfolding, away from the stricken ship and away from the cries of his drowning passengers.

A unique and thrilling production by London-based Isosceles Theatre, will take you back in time to that fateful evening, examining Ismay’s actions and asking whether any of us would have done the same. Was he a coward or merely human?

The story unfolds as Ismay is visited by the ghost of the ship’s architect, years after the monumental disaster, and is forced to relive that horrific night, scene by scene whilst all the while the audience is prompted to question his guilt.

It is a new play written by Patrick Prior, performed by Pat Abernathy and Dave Marsden and directed by Jim Dunk.
