When a young man jumps in front of the train Cyrus is driving, the enigmatic circumstances prompt him to search for answers. Pursuing the truth of Sonny's final hours, Cyrus is led to laundrette worker Christine, as the past begins to catch up with them all.
An evocative thriller about the power of guilt, the quest for atonement and the fragility of human relationships, Winsome Pinnock's One Under was first performed in 2005, and reimagined in a touring Graeae and Theatre Royal Plymouth production in 2019.
Winsome Pinnock's plays have been produced on the British stage and internationally since 1985. She was the first black British female writer to have a play produced by the National Theatre, and has worked as a dramaturg for the National Theatre and the Royal Court. Her work has received the Windham-Campbell Prize, the George Devine Award and the Alfred Fagon Award. In 2020, she was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature. She has held senior academic posts at Royal Holloway University, Kingston University and Cambridge University.
