The Many Ghosts of Bishop Philpotts

Exeter Drama Company present The Many Ghosts of Bishop Phillpotts, a new play based on real events, from the life of Bishop Henry Phillpotts.

Old foes and long buried controversies resurface, as Phillpotts confronts past battles, with the people; the press; and truth. Whose interests was he really serving? God’s; the peoples; or his own? Most of his accusers are familiar adversaries, but why is he being visited by Eric Williams, a man who would go on to be the first Prime Minister of Trinidad and Tobago?

The play asks questions about the British Establishments relation to power; and control, its past and its present, secrets and lies.
