A passionate, comic fable about the housing crisis and a maverick’s mission to turn the tide – a new play by Henry Darke supported by Bristol Old Vic and The Ronald Duncan Literary Foundation

Above a secluded cove in Cornwall, Huck, a former fisherman, is holed up in an empty second home. The holiday season is fast approaching – the sharks are coming.

As Booby’s Bay gets busy for the annual surfing competition Huck wants to shake things up, even if no one’s listening. He’s going to make a stand.

“Strong and timely…Darke’s promising new play at a time of national housing crisis raises big issues and Chris White’s production is finely acted.”
Michael Billington, The Guardian
