About Driftwood
‘dis is my home. My whole life. My history here. And de only future I go have is here.’
Heat is rising in colonial Trinidad. While support for political independence is growing, a downtown Port of Spain gentlemen’s club is about to be entangled in a custody battle of its own.
ALMA promises guests a welcome escape from the bustle of the capital. Owned by Englishman Mansion, governed by Pearl and coveted by her beguiling daughter Ruby – each with their own business plan in mind.
An unexpected stranger – Diamond – carries in a rum delivery, bringing with him a familial revelation and a pursuit for wealth. His deal with a corrupt US Marine imperils ALMA, and all who call it home. One wrong move and everything could shatter, but who will play the right game?
The first play from Martina Laird, directed by Chichester Festival Theatre’s Artistic Director Justin Audibert, Driftwood is a high-stakes drama of power, passion and danger.

Not sure what this play was about as no central theme. Acting was poor apart from the actor who played the policeman. Some of the relationship themes were sketchy too. Worst thing I've seen this year. Why was it called Driftwood? No idea!
It was interesting but the accesnts were bad and it's uncomfortable at times
Set in Colonial Trinidad. Some accents dropped. A few adult themes. Fun night out.
