As part of the Manx Amateur Drama Federation’s Easter Festival of One Act and Full Length Plays we performed Victoria Station by Harold Pinter.
Victoria Station consists of the radio dialogue between a minicab Controller and a Driver who is stopped by the side of a dark park in Crystal Palace, supposedly waiting further instructions. The Controller attempts to instruct the Driver to pick up a client from Victoria Station, but the Driver declines to move, focusing on his current client. The Controller’s mood shifts through various degrees of mystification towards irritation and then possibly compassion masking some more nefarious intention of what to do with this Driver.
Tony Eccles directed the show with our uber talented local cast.
