Sinossi

After years of austerity, London is a city riven by inequality. Bathing in its newfound status as the pre-eminent destination for foreign wealth, the city has forgotten about those who can't afford to keep up. When a cash-strapped local council sell off their housing stock to developers, the lives of residents of the Bevan estate begin to unravel. Meanwhile, the wealthy homeowners living around Albion Park relish the prospect of the estate being demolished. Conflict is inevitable as the demands of developers and investors supersede those of a local community. Through a cast of unforgettably vivid characters, Albion Park provides an unflinching examination of a city in thrall to money and greed. It not only tells the story of a locale but also stands as a metaphor for the whole nation.

    The complete savage, steamy, pulse-pounding Wolves of New York series is now available in one collection! 
    WOLF KING 
    Maxim Thorn is a ruthless Alpha, a mobster king who rules his pack with an iron fist.  
    He’s also my only hope. 
    As a shifter from the wrong side of the tracks who’s just been rejected by my abusive fated mate, I don’t have a lot of options in this city. 
    In exchange for one month of protection from my ex and his friends, I promise to give Maxim what he wants—me. 
    WOLF PAWN 
    Maxim’s pack is under siege. His enemies will stop at nothing to lay claim to everything he holds dear.  
    And thanks to an ancient prophecy, half the shifter world believes being mated to me (or my long-lost sister) is the key to unlimited power. 
    That’s the other thing—the sister I haven’t seen in years? 
    She’s alive, and out to destroy Maxim. 
    WOLF QUEEN 
    The shifter world is running out of time…and so am I. 
    Maxim Thorn is a dangerous—even deadly—man who betrayed my trust and the love growing between us. But compared to his brother, Bane, my alpha kingpin is a freaking teddy bear. 
    It’s looking like there’s no way out when an unlikely ally emerges, promising to help me subvert the dark prophecy that has me in its crosshairs. 
    All I’ll have to sacrifice is a piece of my soul and the man who would have been my fated mate… 
    WOLF MATE 
    Maxim proved he would give his life to defend mine. 
    I proved I would kill to keep him by my side. 
    But is the bloody devotion of a united king and queen enough to win this war? 
    Or will we lose everything we hold dear—our hope, our freedom, and maybe even…each other.

    This 1 hour, 3 actor, 3 scene comedy is meant to be enjoyed with friends around the dinner table after a good meal and plenty of libations.  
    The premise: The two main characters, Albert and Larry, are 80 year-old twins who have been picking at each other all their lives. They share an apartment, have just purchased a new TV, and are having some difficulty getting it to work. Sounds simple, but things go downhill fast from there and eventually off the cliff when the landlord arrives. The play has a lot of quick back-and-forth dialog so it reads like a comedy routine. It can be performed sitting around the table if someone is reading the stage directions. Actual age of actors is not important. 
    Minimum props required: TV remote, cell phone, two pieces of paper with Awww! and Clap! written on them, two foldout brochures of any kind to function as TV Quick Start Guide and headphone guide. The rest can be mimed. 
    If your plan is to perform it onstage, go for it. You have my blessing as long as you credit the work. Posting a review with a pic of the production would be possibly hilarious, but definitely cool. 
    ​​​​​​​Reviews: The Lansdowne Times might call Remotely Annoying the funniest thing since sliced bread, but nobody thinks sliced bread is funny and there is no Lansdowne Times. However, this play has been fully tested and approved by 8 brave souls who, shall they rest in peace, died laughing.
