P E R T H F E S T I V A L O F T H E A R T S 17 P E R T H F E S T I V A L . C O . U K John Harper and Joseph Ismay. Passengers on the Titanic. A church minister and an executive of the White Star Line. One a hero, one a coward. Both have a story to tell. That ill-fated crossing generated many tales of heroism and in amongst them, one or two more questionable endeavours. First-class and second-class passengers seldom came eye to eye, but as the ship slowly sunk and the panic for a lifeboat space began, these two men were cast together in a devastating drama. 19:30 | MON 25 MAY | ST MATTHEW’S CHURCH HALL | TICKETS £17 ‘A heartfelt and moving tribute to the heroism of the common man, and that the heart of even the richest men can be opened and brought into the light.’ ★★★★ British Theatre Guide TITANIC THE LAST HERO & THE LAST COWARD Searchlight Theatre Company presents P E R T H F E S T I V A L O F T H E A R T S 17 BUY AT PERTH FESTIVAL BOX OFFICE
