TRIO

Brighton. London. Paris. 1968.

In the summer of 1968 the world is reeling from the escalating Vietnam War, the assassinations of Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy, from revolution in France and Germany and the impending invasion of Czechoslovakia.

Meanwhile our trio are involved in the making of a rackety Swingin’ Sixties British movie in sunny Brighton on the South Coast.

A producer.

A writer.

An actress.

One man and two women – but all three of them are leading deeply secret lives.

As the film is shot, with its usual drastic ups and downs, so does our trio’s private, secret world begin to take over their public one. Pressures build inexorably – someone’s going to crack. Or maybe they all will.

Funny, sad, tragic, redeeming. We follow our trio through the summer of 1968 as they ask themselves the vital questions: what makes life worth living? And what do you do if you find it isn’t?
