by John McGrath (Author)
A sunny September day. Heather Smithson, a senior MI5 controller, has a dilemma. Her job is on the line. She pauses in the sunshine to brood on recent events and what they mean in her life. Seattle, Genoa, New York: What is the battleground? Who is the enemy?
Hyperlynx was performed as a one act rehearsed reading at the Edinburgh Festival in August 2001. Its grim premonition of the terrorist activity of September 11th, necessitated that John McGrath wrote a second act. He completed the play in November before his death in January 2002.
Hyperlynx was the winner of the Fringe First Award, Edinburgh 2002
