Ongoing, First published Jan 05, 2021
After a three-year escape in Tokyo, Harry, a criminal lawyer, returns to London to make amends with his childhood friend and former partner, playwright and actress, Edna-Jane. She struggles to forgive Harry's sudden departure as she's still recovering from the stillbirth of their baby caused by a hit and run accident, four years previously. She discovers that Harry has considered representing a potential suspect responsible for the car crash in court. Harry's introversion on the subject and anger management issues trigger Edna-Jane's impatience and frail state of mind. Embarking on a journey of pretence, Edna-Jane creates three interior monologues representative of their unhealthy relationship throughout the years, hoping the final show provides disclosure of their wrongdoings.

Voicing the terrors of postmodernism and the labyrinthine city, and through military, political, historic and religious references 'The Northern Lights' presents life as a theatre of decay and love as a cosplay.
