Nicholas Wright’s new play is an exploration of the latter years and suicide of star BBC correspondent James Mossman. When the brilliant news man killed himself mid-career, he left a cryptic note. Was there more hiding behind his death, or are the known facts all there is?

Nicholas Wright’s previous plays at the National include the award-winning Vincent In Brixton and adaptations of His Dark Materials and Thérèse Raquin.
