Description This one man play is a brilliant portrayal of a man on a crusade for certainity but on the edge of a nervous breakdown. The production sees the return of the original team that made this play a landmark in the 1970s. A moving dramatic monologue in which a teaching brother grapples with personal anguish and a sense of time departed while trying to hold the attention of a class of unwilling students.
