The Saddleworth Constable

PREMIERE OF MARTIN PAUL ROCHE'S NEW PLAY
Sandy is an artist who has fallen out of love with art but more specifically, her own. Steve is the retired local policeman who has recently discovered art having fallen out of love with life. When Sandy returns to her Saddleworth roots, she has no plans other than to get some respite from her fast-paced life; to make space and certainly not to make connections.But a slow-paced life can sometimes be just as challenging because when you slow it down, the blurs are soon replaced with the sharply focussed reality of the life thats been passing you by.In returning to her roots, Sandy discovers, hiding within the blurs, a sardonic, eccentric, but deeply private man who does not appreciate what he has to offer to the world and her. In stumbling across each other they also rediscover two things we all need; a passion and a purpose.The Saddleworth Constable is a simple, light hearted story about rediscovering the life you need, the love you deserve and the home you never lost... and leaving well alone which county youre in. Oh, and cheese and onion crisps.
