About this ebook
An earthquake strikes at the heart of London, its epicentre a theatre where a lavish production of 'The Tempest' has just opened. Thus the scene is set for Will Eaves' gloriously deft tragicomedy of our time.
Nothing To Be Afraid Of is both a lament for hope abandoned and innocence betrayed, and an exquisite comic pageant of Shakespearean vitality and compassion: an incidental theatrical history across the twentieth century of the art of pretence; of patience, trust and loyalty; of folly in youth and unforgivable old age.
