The Retreat from Moscow
March 16th, 2008 at 8:03 pm (Nigel Bennett)
Nigel is currently playing Edward in Neptune Theatre’s production of “The Retreat from Moscow” by William Nicholson.
It’s while reading about Napoleon’s fateful campaign to Moscow that Edward, a teacher at a boy’s school, makes a momentous decision – to leave Alice, his wife of 34 years. The ensuing fracas is an explosive encounter where both sides walk away battered and wounded.
“The Retreat from Moscow” is a scathingly honest look at the personal and emotional casualties of a shattered marriage.
The play is on stage until March 30.
