So Much More the Man by Stephen La Marchand

Philip is an English teacher in Worcester, nearing retirement. Feeling melancholy, as another academic year approaches, he looks back with sadness at his life because, although happy and successful, it has been unremarkable. He compares himself to the characters in the literature he has taught and wishes his life had been more exciting. In this mood, he encounters Jane – a lost love from 40 years ago who dropped him abruptly after they played Macbeth and Lady Macbeth in an outdoor production in Jersey in 1977. With Jane suddenly back in his life, Philip struggles with new temptations and powerful memories. But will it all end in terrible tragedy?
Stephan Le Marchand grew up in Jersey. He has a BA in English and Theatre Studies from The University of Warwick, and an MA in Shakespeare and Theatre from The Shakespeare Institute, University of Birmingham. After graduating he spent two years at The Bristol Old Vic Theatre School, and then two years as a professional actor.
