Maskers bring to life the travels of author Bill Bryson as he lives and works in Britain. Arriving in Dover in 1973 Bryson arrived in Britain from Des Moines, Iowa, with no idea what to expect, and quickly discovered it wasn't so bad, really. Reflecting back on his travels, we encounter many of the people he met, and they highlight the joys and quirks of our funny little island. From formidable bed and breakfast proprietors to Tube station buskers, the bobby on the beat to trainspotters, tour guides and drinkers in a Glaswegian pub, these characters guide Bryson the length and breadth of the country, as he navigates not only the oddities of his new home, but also the ups and downs of life.
