Two contemporary solo thrillers with gripping narratives, written and performed in many voices by Norfolk-based multi-award-winning Christopher Sainton-Clark.
The Night that Ali Died
Ali is wanted dead by a vicious London gangster, yet something possesses him to leave the safety of witness protection and disappear into the night, leaving his daughter and partner behind. This act triggers a deadly, and bloody domino effect that ricochets through the once quiet streets of Norwich. Piece by piece and through the brutal accounts of each key player, find out what happened on the night that Ali died.
A Year and a Day
An inexplicable curse causes Nathan to skip a year and a day into the future every time he falls asleep, only existing for twenty-four hours once a year. Leaving behind a botched heist, the love of his life, his debt-ridden family and an upset criminal gang, Nathan must learn how to help the ones he cares about in this new and ever-changing existence. Spanning 65 years and two countries, this is a bold, poignant and darkly funny exploration of a man trying to right his wrongs.
