Born into a Cambridge family of outstanding scholars and great engineers, to be shamed and spat out as one of life's failures. Stumbling into the heaven and hell of the sixties crash pad: London, The Arts Lab, Anti University, LSD and Paris. Running from the past always just a beat ahead of the fall. Constantly on the cusp of the extraordinary changes which took place in the theatre in those decades of influence, from Richard Eyre to Steven Berkoff and Theatre de Complicite; glimmers of new possibilities; close encounters with the fledgling Pink Floyd, BKS Iyengar, RD Laing and other key influences of the sixties and seventies...Here is a story, marked by humour and pathos, where the soul and the spirit prevail, which goes far beyond the confines of academia to explore the tragic limitations of knowledge and bring it later, much later, to a place of forgiveness and resolution.
