During the First World War; two teenage girls fool the world into believing they have photographed fairies at the bottom of the garden. But have they captured a little magic along with the mischief? Inspired by the true story of the Cottingley Fairies; The Light Burns Blue by Silva Semerciyan is part of Platform; a new initiative from Tonic Theatre in partnership with Nick Hern Books. Aimed at addressing gender imbalance and inequality in theatre; Platform comprises big-cast plays with predominantly or all-female casts; written specifically for performance by school; college and youth-theatre groups. Drama is an important tool for building confidence and empowering young people. Platform will give girls opportunity to access these benefits as much as their male counterparts. - Moira Buffini

Great bookBy Jhoanna GIt was a homework book; but to be honest I really enjoyed reading it. A great tragedy in which the story turns around.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Great readable translation!By Betsy AldrichSurprisingly enjoyable read. I got this for my sons 10th grade English class and we read it out loud together; with each of us reading different characters. It was easy to understand and for our first exposure to Greek Tragedy; I was very pleasantly surpised. I highly recommend it.
