Lockerbie 103 premiered at FORUM 28, in BARROW on 20 February 2003. DES DILLON's compelling new drama then went on national tour throughout the United Kingdom.

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.

Directed by RACHEL ASHTON; Design ANDREW WOOD, Lighting Design PAUL COLLEY with music by composed by OLLY FOX.
Cast GEORGE SAVVIDES, NATHAN NOLAN, SHEENA PENSON, IAN BLOWER and RONAN PATTERSON.
