A powerful exploration of the legacy of the bombing of Pan Am flight 103 over Lockerbie and profound stories of grief and forgiveness.
It is exactly seven years after the deadliest terrorist attack in Britain: the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie. Bereaved American couple Maddie and Bill visit the Scottish town for the first time in a bid to finally put the past behind them. The women of Lockerbie have set up the Laundry Project - they want to wash the 11,000 items of clothing belonging to the victims that are still being held in a warehouse as forensic evidence, and return them to the victims’ families - an act of love and purification. But the US Government is proving uncooperative. At midnight on the 21st December 1995, these stories collide with pathos, compassion and humour in this powerful script. ‘Hatred will not have the last word in Lockerbie.’ LynchPin previously performed The Women of Lockerbie to acclaim at the Electric Theatre, Guildford, and has given readings of the play in London and the South East, receiving brilliant reviews: ‘Who would have thought that a group of actors, dressed in black, sitting in a semi-circle on a bare stage could make a play reading so dramatic, so riveting and almost unbearably moving?’ Hugh Steadman Williams, playwright‘A beautifully constructed and nuanced exploration of grief - a play of utmost subtlety and depth.’ Marina Cantacuzino, The Forgiveness Project
