Chasing Waves

by Cally Phillips

Two men. One box. The possibilities are endless. So forget everything you’ve ever learned and come on the hunt for Higgs Boson with two characters who may or may not be philosopher of language Ludwig Wittgenstein and quantum physicist Erwin Schrödinger . Exploring the nature of character and the relationship between author, character and audience,Chasing Waves (2004) sits firmly in the absurdist tradition of theatre. Faced with what appears to be an ordinary cardboard box, the two characters embark on an extraordinary journey in search of understanding which leads them to and us to explore: Who are we? Where are we going? What’s in the box? and most importantly What is the box?
The ebook edition also includes extras and the script for the unproduced 1995 short drama Benito Boccagnegra’s Big Break.

About the author

My writing career has 'downshifted' from screen to stage to page over 20 years. And now it focuses on digital. I'm in the process of publishing my back catalogue of stage plays as well as working on novels and 'advocacy' pieces. I write short stories regularly for McStorytellers, I have been editor of the Indie eBook Review and now review for Reading Between the Lines. I'm director of the Edinburgh eBook Festival and if that's not enough I'm working for a couple of Publishers - HoAmPresst, Guerrilla Midgie and Ayton Press, all of them with different niches. Spare time - hobbies? You've got to be joking. Between reading, writing and publishing there is no spare time. And I wouldn't have it any other way.
