        Despondent Divorcee, The         Mildred And The Midnight City         My Friend Peter         This Was the World and I Was King



Despondent Divorcee, The

Synopsis:
A 1940s New York hotel spirals through a storm of media speculation following the eighth-storey suicide leap of a desperate young woman. A psychological thriller featuring the bittersweet poetry of Sara Teasdale and live jazz music. The audience enter the Kendrick Hotel's hauntingly desolate jazz bar and witness flickers of the fractured final days of Frances Dupree. The shameless exploitation behind a ferocious media circus is called to question in this unsettling story of identity, morality, and disgrace. Previous reviews: ***** (ThreeWeeks). **** (Scotsman). 'HookHitch grab their audiences and don't let go' **** (FestivalJournal.co.uk).
