Sobre IBD

Heaven is a discothèque frequented by thrill seekers. On this Saturday night Wayne Cabey, a high school boy, has come to win the dance competition featured by the disco. He needs the price money to pay for his school leaving examinations and has persuaded his gorgeous friend, Cynthia Corbett, to be his dance partner and help him win. But two far more powerful men, Sam Drummonds and Tony Thompson (with his wife Dilys) are also in Heaven with their own plans for Cynthia. The young dance couple must work their way through a night of temptations, machinations and passions that are an integral part of their world. Howard A. Fergus, in his review of the play says: 'Heaven, employed as a key metaphor by the author, reflects the ambiguities, tensions and uncertainties of real life...It is the heaven metaphor which lifts an otherwise interesting man-woman love-tangle story into the highly engaging realm of good art.'

  • Through the years with prince charming
    Paul du Quenoy
    The past decade has overflowed in a raging stream of contradictions. Old certainties have yielded to relentless insecurity over a time when much of the human experience got immeasurably better even as many things only ever seemed to get worse. As Paul du Quenoy’s globetrotting criticism reveals, the arts were in a ferment that matched profound and yet totally unpredicted social...
