Hidden in the Sand by James Phillips
Sometimes we don’t live, we cope. I have coped, not lived, for a long time. So have you I think. A passionate love story set between London and Cyprus. Alexandra, a refugee from the Turkish invasion of Cyprus in 1974, has made a home in London and cocooned herself from ghosts of the past. There, she meets Jonathan, an English classical scholar, who falls deeply in love with her. Against a backdrop of war and the partition of countries, can love overcome the grief of the past?
Phillips is a skilled playwright. . Hidden in the Sand ultimately reveals itself to be a thoughtful meditation on forgiveness, reconciliation and moving on. * Stage *
Something remarkable has happened at Hampstead Theatre. A young, first-time playwright called James Phillips has burst on to the scene with a brilliantly assured drama of ideas and passions -- Dominic Cavendish * Telegraph on 'The Rubenstein Kiss' *
[A] commendably assured first play . . . it vividly captures the interlocking nature of sexual and ideological passion. -- Michael Billington * Guardian on 'The Rubenstein Kiss' *
