Tarn was a Rhymer who couldn't rhyme, until he met the strange, shining boy:
This is the one, this is the one
White like the moon and gold like the sun.
And from that moment he knew that he must follow the boy, even if it was to the Outlands where few people had been before, and those that had, never came back the same.
Today: Boy

with Martin C. Thurley as Peter Murchison, James Grout as Sinclair

Selling is easy when you have faith in the product; but though Peter Murchison finds his way across the Yorkshire moors on an initiative test, the people he meets help him lose his sense of direction.

"The whole play was indeed full of fine cameo performances - James Grout as the schoolmaster who couldn't stop humiliating his boys, and Joe Gladwin, the shepherd..." (James Thomas, Daily Express)
