The author

Part time computer consultant, actor, musician, singer, sound engineer and video editor, ex-maths lecturer and ex-radio presenter, Nigel lives and writes in Cardiff in Wales.

Nigel Holloway

Originally, Nigel concentrated mainly on writing for the stage, and to date, twelve of his plays have been published, with performances taking place as far afield as Australia - and Hull.  A number of his shorter plays have also been recorded as podcasts, and are available to download.

Nigel has also written two musical adaptations, based on the music of Sir Arthur Sullivan:  

A Savoy Christmas Carol, based on Dickens' timeless classic (for more details go to www.xmas-carol.co.uk), 

and The Savoy Beggar's Opera, based on the original musical play by John Gay (more information at the Savoy Beggar's Opera website).

He remains fascinated by finding intriguing 'holes in history' - questions about particular people and events which are not answered by the existing historical record.  Much of his work seeks to fill these 'holes' with explanations which fit (most of the time) with the known facts of the events in question

Nigel's first novel, a historical fiction entitled The damning of Henry Morgan, is available from Amazon Kindle, by clicking here.  For more information about the book, go to the website.

His second novel, again a fictional account of real characters, entitled Scartato, is available from Amazon Kindle.

His third novel, Second Death, a sort of science fiction, is also available from Amazon Kindle.

He is currently working on a second musical adaptation of The Beggar's Opera - this time a rock opera version called The Beggar's Rock Opera! - in collaboration with his fellow musicians who perform under the name Perfect Recall.

As well as this, he has recently started on a sequel to his novel 'Second Death'.
