Starring Moira Brooker (Judith in As Time Goes By) and Carly Hillman (Nicki Di Marco in EastEnders), 15 Minutes is the first in a series of plays to be premiered as part of the South-East's New Exciting Writing programme.
A viciously witty and thought-provoking story of betrayal, it is set in the hyped world of TV and charts the turbulent relationship between Toni, who is trying to go straight, and Maggie, who is more concerned about making a documentary about her.
Weaving the "documentary" footage throughout the onstage action, the play pierces the fiction that real life is what you see on telly and offers a savagely funny attack on the media.
The writer is Hastings-based playwright Christine Harmar-Brown, whose recent writing credits include Blessings, Wearing Something Heavy and Cinderella at the De La Warr Pavilion, while Paul Jepson of Chichester Festival success directs.
