' Outward Bound' at The Pewter Plough Playhouse
The Pewter Plough presents a rediscovered and groundbreaking play,"Outward Bound" , a captivating and ethereal fantasy, interspersed with humor, about an odd assortment of passengers on an obscure ocean liner headed for an unknown destination: a mysterious voyage which will become an eerie and fateful revelation for them all! Seven bewildered strangers meet in the ship’s art deco bar lounge, none quite sure why they’re there, and begin to unravel the journey’s mysterious meaning, the pivotal back stories behind each of their lives and the telling ultimate truths and surprises in store! This influential British classic, written in 1923, was a massive London and Broadway hit at its premier, led to multiple film adaptations, and startlingly prefigures metaphysical themes later made famous by The Twilight Zone series and other similar movies and plays. The original Broadway hit set Leslie Howard on his path to stardom and in various stage and screen versions featured such luminaries as Alfred Lunt, Vincent Price, Laurette Taylor, Douglas Fairbanks Jr and John Garfield. A very human and relevant story about creating one’s own destiny and not taking things for granted, it is gripping, humorous and moving!
