JUST days after Titanic foundered near her last reported position of 41 North 50 West, a US Senate Inquiry was held in New York to determine causes of the disaster.

The liner’s legacy has endured over 102 years with tales of sacrifice and human tragedy following her ill-fated voyage from Southampton.

In a SeaCity Museum courtroom setting, just blocks from where Titanic sailed, experience the rare words and stories as spoken on the stand by actual stunned Titanic survivors, witnesses and closely connected individuals.

These true testimonies in new play 41N 50W paint a chilling image of unfolding events surrounding the disaster.

We see the pieces of a puzzle come together as those involved desperately try to find out the truth and struggle to take action.

The play makes a ten performance UK premiere at the Southampton museum from Thursday.

A special opening night event will celebrate SeaCity Museum’s second birthday with a portion of the evening’s proceeds going to the Millvina Dean Lifeboat Appeal & Titanic Heritage Trust in support of the Royal National Lifeboats Institute. Millvina Dean was the last living Titanic survivor.

The April 14 performance, the day the Titanic sank, will be followed by a memorial service.

The British Titanic Society will also host an invited performance of the play as part of their 2014 Convention.

  • Tickets are available from the Nuffield Theatre box office.
