The Sacred Flame - English Touring Theatre - Rose Kingston

English Touring Theatre presents The Sacred Flame by W. Somerset Maugham, at the Rose Theatre, in Kingston, south London, from 13 to 22 Sep 2012, prior to a UK tour.

Directed by Matthew Dunster, designed by Anna Fleischle, lighting by Lee Curran, sound by Emma Laxton.

World War One hero Maurice Tabret is disabled after a flying accident, tended lovingly by his mother, his beautiful wife Stella, and the devoted Nurse Wayland. When he dies from an overdose during the night, and it is revealed that Stella is in love with Maurice's brother Colin and is expecting a baby, questions begin to be raised as to whether it was murder or suicide.
