The Silent Stream (Wisdom Of A Brighton Whore - Part 1)
Something Underground Theatre Company presents the first part of their multi-award winning Well Trilogy, a tale of the murky, sordid and dangerous depths of Brighton’s Underworld.
George is a king in waiting.
Kept to the wings and given no role by his pious, over-controlling father, he turns to a life of hedonism whereupon building borrowing, cavorting, paying off women, gambling, drink and laudanum …all become close to his heart.
Once on the throne…. nothing changes.
As he moves to his next project, his Brighton Pavilion, he is forced to change the course of a hidden river that runs through the centre of the town.
Unbeknownst to him, the ancient river has its allies in the underworld, and George finds himself caught up in adventures, that his father considers unholy, in a bid to find out what wisdom his own unbidden children have to tell him.
George IV, The Prince Regent, was often painted as a two dimensional fool. He may have been a fool, but which of us is not.
Echoes down through the ages of the Boris, the Prince Andrew, the Trump of his time?
Written and Performed by Jonathan Brown.
