An eclipse that never goes away. Penned by some of the Bristol's finest writers, "The Day That Broke" is an ensemble piece connecting 6 different stories that revolve around a solar eclipse. The various characters, on a number of timelines before, during, and after the event each respond differently to it - and indeed, those timelines become different worlds since the eclipse, mysteriously, never ends.

It’s May, 1963. The Vietnam War is in full swing. Music and fashion is at it’s finest. And a man works on a poem for his girlfriend with the look of love in his eyes.
