Synopsis
She came to us one dawn. The girl. Far out One dawn alone beneath the wine dark sea. One day it starts to rain and no-one knows why. And it doesn't stop. Far out on the North Sea a fisherman raises a girl in his net, miraculously alive from the deep sea. Is she one of the migrants now washing up on English shores? Or someone sent for some higher purpose? Commissioned by Hull UK City of Culture 2017 this epic and extraordinary collaboration between multi-award-winning artists James Phillips and Slung Low is the culmination of a year-long project. Four parts told across three different mediums, this complete text includes four stunningly written dramas that ask fundamental questions about our future, our communities and our collective responsibilities. "A State of the Nation Parable" BBC Arts "Visually stunning, and deeply moving" The Stage

A visually stunning, and deeply moving, drama about belonging. -- Will Ramsey, The Stage James Phillips's script is a smart piece of work, superimposing elements of mythology on to a near-future dystopian tale of "a world where people have decided that the best way to go forwards is to go backwards". . . . a provocative vision of how riskily we might reinvoke "British values" * Financial Times on 'Camelot'. * A State of the Nation Parable * BBC Arts * Flood is of course extraordinary. Moved, troubled, enthralled, amazed. * Erica Whyman, Royal Shakespeare Company * Its poetic script creates a strange, modern fable - where the sea, a source of riches for the fishing crews, can also dredge up great dangers. -- Will Ramsey, The Stage a brilliantly assured drama of ideas and passions * The Telegraph (on The Rubenstein Kiss) *
