Drowning On Dry Land is one of Ayckbourn's most tonally surprising and unstable works; technically it is also one of his most sparingly and yet also elaborately written, combining apparent thinness of dialogue with intricately complex plotting, where motivation and reactions are typically merely suggested with the most delicate of shading, with hints, or shadows of meaning.

Gregory S. Moss is an ingenious playwright who has created a sequence of tableaux, each of which can be understood as a 'cover' of a different musical 'track' on a personalised cassette tape, of the kind typically compiled for each other by friends in the long-lost 1980s. The scenes are, in fact, 'riffs' on actual recordings, and the anoraks amongst us (Hand up! - Guilty!) will have huge fun in tracing their origins, analysing the author's creation as if it were the product of some Walmart T S Eliot.

The play strikes one as more comic, at least in the first Act, than it is played here under James Grieve's direction. More Thin Blue Line and less Z Cars might have helped. James Graham's writing, his focus on convention and protocol, should guide proceedings, and it does, at least to start. The opening scene goes a long way in the right direction, although the characters, all police, could afford to be more stereotypically quirky and fussy. Harry Melling, a supple and intriguing actor, always reliable, does the very best work here.
