Moment of Grace - A play by Bren Gosling
- Plays and Theatre
The princess, the patient, and the handshake that changed the face of AIDS. Based on personal testimonies, Moment of Grace tells of the famous visit by Diana, Princess of Wales, to Britain’s first AIDS Unit in 1987 and its impact on three people – Andrew, a patient, Jude, a nurse, and Donnie, a fireman estranged from his son. In a world where even being seen to work on this ward could cost you everything, this act paved the way for a major shift in the public perception of people living with HIV and AIDS. Worldwide interest, news crews and a televised interview followed. To change public misconceptions, would you have risked it? Moment of Grace will make you laugh, cry, get angry, and open your heart. Deeply moving…shocking…heart-breaking. ★★★★★ (LondonTheatre1) A wonderful story. Compelling. Please see it! (Alison Steadman)
