Synopsis
John Godber wrote this play based on personal experience. Invited to
attend events all over the world his need to fly regularly was causing
him problems. His wife enrolled him on a 'Fly with Confidence' course at
Nottingham East Midlands Airport as a birthday present! We don't know
how the course affected him and his ability to get on a plane but the
play was written based on his experiences. All the people in the play
were real, he tells us, from the ex-RAF leader of the course to the big
man afraid to get on the plane.
The play speaks to us all with its acute observation of our neuroses
highlighted and fuelled by a stressful experience in public.
