Hidden in the Sand is a passionate love story set against the backdrop of civil war, which asks if love can survive the trauma of the partition of the lover's homeland.
Sometimes we don’t live, we cope. I have coped, not lived, for a long time. So have you I think. A passionate love story set between London and Cyprus. Alexandra, a refugee from the Turkish invasion of Cyprus in 1974, has made a home in London and cocooned herself from ghosts of the past. There, she meets Jonathan, an English classical scholar, who falls deeply in love with her. Against a backdrop of war and the partition of countries, can love overcome the grief of the past?
Phillips is a skilled playwright . . . Hidden in the Sand ultimately reveals itself to be a thoughtful meditation on forgiveness, reconciliation and moving on. * Stage *

[A] commendably assured first play . . . it vividly captures the interlocking nature of sexual and ideological passion. -- Michael Billington * Guardian on 'The Rubenstein Kiss' *
