Synopsis Summer 2007 was the wettest on record leaving 48,000 homes flooded across England. One year on, over 2,200 households were still living in caravans. This documentary theatre piece, performed in a caravan for an audience of just eight, hears word for word how everyday people cope in a crisis. Some have coped with laughter, some with anger, others haven't coped al all. Running time 35mins. The Caravan won a Fringe First Award at last year's Edinburgh Festival.
