What Is The Story?

It's the middle of the 18th century, and in a corner of Bristol, William Critchard's life is about to turn on its head. He has a thoroughly unexpected meeting with charming young sailor Richard Arnold, kindling the beginnings of a relationship that will change both men and in a time when being gay meant severe persecution, will put them both in grave danger. Redcliffe enjoyed a sell-out run in its workshop phase and comes to the Southwark Playhouse with a full staging.
