Winner of the 2021 ETPEP Award

Eighty-year-old Fitz sits in a counselling session trying to piece together fragmented memories of joining the British Army and finding himself posted to Cyprus.

Before coming to England, his counsellor Dimitris deserted from the Cypriot army, but he can’t share that with Fitz…

A stunning award-winning new play, Service is a complex conflict of masculinity, colonialism and loyalty – in a room at the heart of the Empire.
