This play brings several stories together: Two forgotten Soviet cosmonauts orbit a world that cannot hear them; A Scottish civil servant, in the throes of a midlife crisis, takes a brave step into the unknown; A Norwegian peace negotiator scours the world to retrieve the tape of his Russian girlfriend’s breath as she stands gazing at the stars and dreaming of her childhood back home; An Edinburgh speech therapist arrives in Provence searching for clues to her husband’s whereabouts. Instead she finds Bernard, a UFO researcher, who very probably knows all the answers. As they don’t speak the same language they drink red wine and dance under the stars. David Greig explores our inability of communication, our desperate need to connect and the incessant search for harmony and peace.
