Review: THE BRENDA LINE, Pitlochry Festival Theatre
by Mary Baillie - September 02, 2024
Harry Mould's play debut zooms in on a fascinating, lesser-known historical tidbit. In the 70s and 80s, UK-based charity The Samaritans ran a telephone line helping those in need. However, these needs extended beyond traditional advice-giving. Known as the 'telephone masturbators', men who asked for 'Brenda' would receive an ear to listen to their darkest sexual fantasies. The play has promise, but lacks impact.
