Edward was gay. Openly gay. And on Wednesday, April 10th, 1912, he set sail for New York on a ticket bought for him by his mother in the hope his American family could put him 'right'.

'Third Class' charts Edward's journey from boarding the Titanic to swimming for 30 minutes towards an already full collapsable lifeboat and how he, upon arriving in New York would tour the vaudeville circuit, recreating the stories for a fact-hungry public.

Using music, movement, projection and text 'Third Class' tells an old story in a new way.
