About this ebook
A boldly theatrical tale of grief and denial, set against the economic crisis of the 1930s.
After years apart, two families come together to rediscover their lost friendship. Instead, they conjure up the spirit of a buried tragedy.
Presented by the Tricycle Theatre and Shared Experience, Bracken Moor premiered in June 2013.
