One wrong move and everything could shatter 

A ‘deeply evocative’ tale of self-determination, family and belonging, set against the backdrop of a 1950s colonial Trinidad on the edge of political independence, Driftwood is the debut play from Casualty, Holby City and EastEnders actor Martina Laird. The production is helmed by Chichester Festival Theatre’s artistic director, Justin Audibert.  


“The play grew from a deep desire to explore inherited patterns, the desire for connection and self-determination,” explains Martina, “and [also] to place Caribbean voices and histories at the centre of the story. To see these characters brought to life by such a generous and gifted ensemble, and under Justin’s direction, feels profoundly moving.”
