"...this tragicomic and very touching three-hander by Tabitha Mortiboy is a little gem."
★ ★ ★ ★ The Times

 “See those three at the edge, those three in a line? That’s me, and you and Julie. We’re a constellation.”

The acclaimed  production returns to the Devonshire Park. Julie sells ice cream on the cliffs at Beachy Head and searches for love online. Her friend Bernard walks the clifftops and can’t seem to settle.

When sixteen-year old Skye arrives for the summer, the lives of all three become unexpectedly entangled and they are confronted with the ghosts of the past. 

Tabitha Mortiboy’s magical play tells of love, loss and midnight ice cream sundaes under the starlit skies of the South Downs.

Directed by Samuel Clemens. With Steven Pinder, Moira Brooker and Polly Jordan.

Post-show discussion with Beacons cast/creative on Friday 15 July.

There will be a collection for the work of the Beachy Head Chaplaincy at the end of every performance.
 

This is a tale primarily of friendship, love and genuine human kindness and without giving anything away, the play ends on a satisfyingly happy note.
