The River Line by Charles Morgan at Jermyn St from 4 Oct

The River Line by Charles Morgan, at the Jermyn Street Theatre, an off West End venue in Piccadilly, central London, from 4 to 29 Oct 2011.

Directed by Anthony Biggs, designed by Rhiannon Newman Brown , lighting by David W. Kidd, sound by Phil Hewitt.

The story of a group of downed, allied pilots in occupied France in 1943 hiding from the Nazis in the granary of a farmhouse owned by a member of the resistance. Tensions rise as they await news of the last leg of their journey through occupied Europe to the Pyrenees along the escape route known as 'The River Line'. As midnight approaches, one brutal action of terrible suddenness is to haunt their lives forever. It is the story of normal men and women are caught in the turmoil of war and how ordinary people are forced to face up to extraordinary circumstances.
