Songlines

by Tallulah Brown

Overview

Stevie is 17. She's peak cool, or so she thinks. In the middle of the wide—eyed stagger from girlhood to womanhood Stevie is sent to live in the middle of nowhere with her grandma. Suffolk – the home of doggers, folklore and Stan. Stan is peak geek, not that he knows. There are secrets in the marshland, songs that will show Stevie the way.

Interwoven with beautiful live folk music from award—winning band TRILLS. Songlines is a coming—of—age love story in all its awkward teen glory.

This edition is published to coincide with the production at the Pleasance Courtyard Beneath, Edinburgh in August 2018 presented by HighTide and DugOut Theatre.

Editorial Reviews

Promising and evocative” —The Stage review of Sea Fret

“Sea Fret is modern and relevant while being reflective on tradition and those who adhere to it. It's about the past, the present, the future and the sea. And it's very much worth a watch.” —Broadway Baby (on Sea Fret)

“Brown's writing is consistently sharp and well—observed.” —Libby Purvis, Midweek
