Synopsis

'Jo and Harry are changing.
Harry is changing more than most, undeniably.
And change is beautiful. Necessary. Terrifying.'
Break-ups aren't just about who gets the CD collection. As Jo and Harry begin to untangle themselves from each other, new worlds start to open up – worlds filled with new partners, new identities, new possibilities…
What kind of women do they want to be, and do they have the courage, or the permission, to get there?
Chris Bush's play Otherland is a bold and beautiful exploration of what it means to be true to yourself in the face of unstoppable change. It premiered at the Almeida Theatre, London, in 2025, directed by Ann Yee.
Otherland was a finalist for the 2025 Susan Smith Blackburn Prize.

    For a god of mischief, April Fool's Day is the highlight of the calendar, a chance to really sow some chaos and discord. For Loki, it's the perfect opportunity to get back as the noble Thor by provoking his wrath in a small town of unsuspecting mortals. One fake dating profile and a liberal amount of lies later, and the scene is set.
    For a real trickster, though, there's little challenge or reward in fooling someone who's so very trusting, and as he learns more about his age-old rival, the fake date threatens to become very real. Can Loki stay on target in living up to his title as chief troublemaker in all the realms, or does the god of thunder have a trick of his own to share?

    Dorian and Cecily had been alive for several centuries, and married for well over one-hundred years. When they decided they wanted a family, they did what any sensible vampires would and adopted three human children. They waited until each was old enough to understand before revealing what they were, and then gave them the choice to be turned once they were twenty-one.
    
    
    Of course, being sensible children, they each agreed they wanted to become vampires as well. Griff, the oldest, is unrepentantly gay. Margie, the middle child, is straight and involved with Wayne, a human. Brad is the youngest and definitely bi.
    
    
    All three joined the family business, art thievery, which is how Griff met Nolan, his parents' human partner, and quickly fell in lust with him.
    
    
    Soon after his turning, Brad meets another Fledgling vampire, Ewan, and Ewan's very possessive Sire, Alexia. This causes problems on more than one front. Problems it will take the entire Martell family to solve ... or so they hope.

    Gordon is a nerdy forensic pathologist who enjoys talking to the corpses in the morgue. Oh, and he’s a vampire. The corpses—and his lab assistants—have been enough for Gordon for a very long time, but every now and then, Gordon wonders what he might find if he ventured outside his comfort zone. 
    Adler considers himself a pretty normal homicide detective, except of course he turns into a wolf once a month. He can trust his instincts, and they tell him that nerdy, vampiric, and smart is what he needs, both in wolf and human form. The only question is, how to win the heart of a doctor who mostly talks to corpses? 
    Can those two make it work in a world that has gotten used to vampires and werewolves, but maybe not so much to one of each dating? They will have to figure that out while working together to solve a string of copycat murders and keep their city safe. 
    The Doctor’s Wolf takes you along to murder scenes, so there is blood and violence. Domestic abuse is discussed.

    The world burns. 
    Damian Traynor leaves home for the first time, hoping to escape grief by throwing himself into his art. Not long after he departs, disaster falls upon his home. From a distance, he watches as friends, family, and history disappear in flames.

    Now, the only hope to fix everything is the brass machine. 
    Stuck in a strange land, Damian encounters the demon Gokko, who bends his will and alters his life's trajectory. With the demon's unique powers, he makes it his mission to kill the Yokai, siphon their magic, and force the brass machine into submission. 
    In another place and time, Kitsune and Myobu celebrate their reunion. Plans are disrupted when the brass machine alters their path. Together, they learn the story of Tsukumogami, relive past traumas, and discover the truth of Kitsune's father, King Oni. 
    The pieces of history fall into place, and Kitsune and Myobu find themselves hurtling on a collision course with Damian and Gokko. As past and present intertwine, the evil plaguing Kitsunetsuki becomes clear. All must work together alongside the brass machine to rid the world of malice for good.

    Sometimes all it takes is one goat to make a difference …
    Being thrown from his horse two days before Christmas is only slightly colder than the chilly reception Hudson Comerford, fourth son of the Marquess of Waterbury, expected on arriving at his family's estate in the Cotswolds. Finding a goat stuck in the undergrowth and just as lost as he is, leads him down a path he never expected to take.
    Percival "Mercy" Cooke served in the Royal Navy for the better part of two decades before coming to his newly widowed sister's rescue. The perils of duty have never quite left him, even if he's more than made a home for himself as the proprietor of The Sunken Ship Inn. When a pre-Christmas blizzard blows a delectable fellow into the common room, trailing a goat of all things, Mercy finds he's been more alone than he knew.
    When Hudson's family duties rear their ugly head, can one very determined goat make it a Merry Christmas?
