"On April 11th, 1912, a young Irish emigrant sent his sweetheart a post card from Queenstown to tell her he was boarding the Titanic on her maiden voyage. The post card survived to be sold at auction in 1990. The story behind these facts provides the basis for the play - involving Patrick and Mary, a fatal scandal, an unforgiving community, and the lovers sadly compromised best friend, Liam." (The Independent) During the plays performances from 1992 to 1996 there were those that scoffed and said that "nobody is interested in the Titanic anymore!" The film TITANIC was later released - they don't say that anymore. Patrick & Mary were joined by Rose & Jack, their stories will live on for all time and forever be associated with the Titanic and her story - and in memory of Patrick and those who lost their lives that terrible night.
