Tis Pity
Synopsis:
A re-imagining of John Ford's classic play, written by Natalie Audley. It relocates the infamous incest drama to the late 1950s, England. A young man falls violently in love with his little sister, despite her engagement to the son of a powerful Don. Gregory abandons law, common sense and tradition in his quest to win the love of his sister, Anita. Expect the same level of blood, passion and eloquent writing to please a Ford purist. Intelligent and unflinching' (Sussex Express on The Great I Am).
