Description
Nominated for an Antoinette Perry Award for Best Play
Frank McGuinness's play, introduced by Brian Keenan, explores the daily crisis endured by hostages whose strength comes from communication, both subtle and mundane, humor, wit and faith. In this play, an Englishman, an Irishman and an American are locked up together in a cell in the Middle East. As victims of political action, powerless to initiate change, what can they do? How do they live and survive?
Someone Who'll Watch Over Me, which opened at the Hampstead Theatre, is based on a true story chronicled in the book An Evil Cradling by Irish hostage survivor Brian Keenan, and presented in the movie Hostages (screenplay by Frank McGuinness).
