My name's Chris Bowers.

I'm a former British diplomat and former journalist.

So Chris, just tell us why you wanted to write this play.

Because it's an amazing story.

There was a potential genocide happening in the Kurdish mountains and a few brave British diplomats prevented a genocide.

Your story, it's based around who?

It's based around one of the key British diplomats.

Catherine Rowe is the heroine of the story.

So they worked around the Foreign Office because she felt herself to be an outsider.

She was very interested in human rights.

And sadly, she actually had to leave the Foreign Office at the end of the year because she'd gone too far.

And the irony is that she'd gone too far actually in helping save hundreds of thousands of lives.

My name is Yad Din.

I'm the producer and director of Safe Haven.

I was born in Kurdistan.

My parents and I fled when I was six or seven months.

I have a very personal connection to this story, that journey that they made through the mountains, on foot, on horseback, to the border of Iran.

So when Chris approached me to direct and produce Safe Haven, I was immediately drawn to it.

How do you see the role?

How do you bring across her role to the public?
