WIN TICKETS TO THE OPENING NIGHT OF THE EDINBURGH
INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL
WIN TICKETS TO 27
American scientist Dr Richard Garfield has given Ursula a difficult choice. She is soon to become the mother superior of a convent that has been given the opportunity to take part in his revolutionary scientific study. Crucially, this study would require that the nuns donate their brains after death to potentially unlock the mysteries of Alzheimer’s and dementia. Ursula must weigh up the value of preserving her faith, versus embracing science for the potential benefit of all.
27 is a new play by Abi Morgan who created the screenplays for The Iron Lady (for which Meryl Streep recently won an Oscar for her portrayal of Margaret Thatcher) and Shame (directed by Steve McQueen and starring Michael Fassbender) and we have five pairs of tickets to give away. Abi is a BAFTA Award-winning writer whose recent work for television The Hour was a huge hit on BBC2 and her plays include Skinned, Sleeping Around and Tiny Dynamite.
