Each of the three was infatuated with Sophie. Before she tragically went blind she fell in love with one of them after viewing his picture in a gallery. Which artist Sophie loved has been a bone of contention all their lives.
This full length play in one act was a radio play before it was staged to acclaim in London.
REVIEWS:
"Artfulness, artistry and art history are elegantly brought together... On one level a simple whodunit, the work is also a clever exercise in altering alignments, which makes you aware of how you have failed to see what was staring you in the face."
The Independent
"Intricate and intriguing."
