Hampstead Theatre At Home presents Harold Brenton's sweeping epic directed by Howard Davies, Drawing the Line, from Monday 13 April until Sunday 19 April 2020.
London, 1947.
Summoned by the Prime Minister from the Court where he is presiding judge, Cyril Radcliffe is given an unlikely mission.
He is to travel to India, a country he has never visited, and, with limited survey information, no expert support and no knowledge of cartography, he is to draw the border which will divide the Indian sub-continent into two new Sovereign Dominions.
To make matters even more challenging, he has only six weeks to complete the task.
Wholly unsuited to his role, Radcliffe is unprepared for the dangerous whirlpool of political intrigue and passion into which he is plunged – untold consequences may even result from the illicit liaison between the Leader of the Congress Party and the Viceroy’s wife…
As he begins to break under the pressure he comes to realise that he holds in his hands the fate of millions of people.
Harold Brenton's sweeping epic directed by Howard Davies vividly unfolds the chaotic story of the partition that shaped the modern world.
Originally performed and live streamed in 2013 on The Guardian website, this unique recording of Drawing The Line returns as part of the Hampstead Theatre At Home series.

Monday 13 April until Sunday 19 April 2020.
