A masterly study of a middle-aged woman waking up after 30 years passed in a coma induced by sleeping sickness. In her mind she is still 16, and her attempts to fathom the changed world into which she re-emerges is not only poignant and emotionally charged but, in the end, devastatingly brilliant theatre as well.
A Kind of Alaska was directed by Kenneth Ives.
A Kind of Alaska runs for 1h 40min, and was released in 1984.
