• the choreography / the movement
• the tableaux
• the silence (the stillness) amidst the noise
• the stylisation: period / costume / movement et al
• British Society - 50's - present: nothing changes!
• the racism
• a sense / the sense of community
• the interlude: the dreaming
• the bus driver
• the working man
• being the meat someone else's sandwich
• what is there more?
• Tom Brooke as Peter
