Commissioned by The Ashton Group from award winning writer Des Dillon and inspired by the book Cover Up of Convenience: The Hidden Scandal of Lockerbie by investigative journalists John Ashton and Ian Ferguson. Cover Up Of Convenience examined the case against the Libyans, but also cast doubt on the official investigation and subsequent trial. Des Dillon has created a fictional set of characters, through whose eyes we see a possible miscarriage of justice unfold. Told with a compassion and humour that is thought provoking, stimulating yet totally accessible. Lockerbie 103 is based on facts that are all within the public domain.
Developed in conjunction with Tara Arts. Tara Arts is renowned for pioneering cross-cultural theatre. It is one of Britain's longest-established touring theatre companies. Tara have collaborated with and supported the Ashton Group in the development of this new script.
