AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'"War makes devils of us all." But what happens to these devils when they come back to live amongst us? Who cares for these living dead, attempting to make sense of civilization once more? EDWARD, a dark, explorative play by Mark Williams examines these very issues.

'Set in suburbia, but never far from the jungle, we journey with Edward, a man desperate to be accepted, trying to connect with the civilized world after a 3 year deployment in Africa. Scared and confused, intelligent and caring, violent and brutal, we accompany Edward as he deals with the conflict within him. His path, like that of Ulysses, puts him in contact with numerous modern-day soothsayers... each has a story to tell and a message to give.'
