  Henry VIII's court is a stage for love and treachery, where the weapons of choice are sex, marriage – and the executioner's axe. As Henry's mistress, Mary Boleyn is a pawn in her family's lust for power. Queen Katherine of Aragon hasn't produced a male heir, and Mary's ruthless uncle scents the chance of putting his niece on the throne.
  But Henry's wandering eye has fallen on another: Mary's headstrong sister, Anne, whose ambition not only threatens to destroy her bond with Mary, but shakes the foundations of Church and State.
  Based on Philippa Gregory's internationally bestselling novel, The Other Boleyn Girl is a brilliant evocation of intrigue at the Tudor court – a racy and riveting drama of events that changed the course of English history. This stage adaptation by Mike Poulton was premiered at Chichester Festival Theatre in 2024, directed by Lucy Bailey.

  Medea by Euripides is one of the most powerful and haunting tragedies of ancient Greek drama. First performed in 431 BCE, this timeless play explores the depths of human passion, betrayal, and revenge, presenting one of the most complex and unforgettable characters in classical literature.
  
  The story centers on Medea, a foreign princess and powerful sorceress who has sacrificed everything for her husband, Jason. Years earlier, she betrayed her own family and homeland to help him obtain the Golden Fleece, leaving her past behind to build a new life together. Yet in the city of Corinth, Medea's devotion is cruelly repaid when Jason abandons her in order to marry the daughter of King Creon, seeking wealth and political advantage.
  
  Cast aside and humiliated, Medea finds herself isolated in a society that already views her as an outsider. Stripped of status and threatened with exile, she confronts the devastating betrayal that has shattered her life. What begins as grief soon transforms into a fierce and calculated desire for justice.
  
  Through Medea's struggle, Euripides explores the intense emotions of love, anger, pride, and wounded dignity. The play reveals the dangers of arrogance and the devastating consequences of betrayal. Medea's intelligence and determination make her both terrifying and compelling, forcing audiences to confront the darker aspects of human nature.
  
  As her plan unfolds, the tragedy builds toward one of the most shocking and unforgettable climaxes in classical theatre. Euripides challenges traditional ideas about heroism, morality, and gender roles, presenting a character who refuses to accept humiliation or powerlessness.
  
  Rich with emotional intensity and poetic language, Medea examines themes of revenge, exile, injustice, and the struggle for dignity in a hostile world. The play remains deeply relevant, continuing to provoke debate about justice, loyalty, and the limits of human rage.
  
  Dark, dramatic, and profoundly thought-provoking, Medea stands as a masterpiece of ancient tragedy—a gripping exploration of betrayal and the destructive power of wounded pride.
