Terra Nova
by Ted Tally
29th November - 7th December 2002
Directed by Graham Kilner

This dramatisation of the final journey of Captain Robert Falcon Scott which blends historical fact and brilliantly devised fantasy scenes shows us what makes a man willing to suffer and even die for an ideal. In exploring the devotion between Scott and his men; the tender ambivalence between Scott and his wife, Kathleen; the soaring hope of the expedition to The Pole and the agony of its tragic end, this complex, engrossing, and beautifully written play is itself a journey to the source of heroism and honour.
