Mary has just been released from prison. She wants to come home and forget all about it – but Briana has other ideas.

A powerful story of family and forgiveness, Deborah Bruce's play Dixon and Daughters was first performed at the National Theatre, London, in April 2023, directed by Róisín McBrinn and co-produced with Clean Break.

    Five insomniacs try to make it through the night. From dusk to dawn, they struggle with a crisis in their lives which they must resolve by morning. Increasingly conscious of their shortening futures and lengthening pasts, they fill their nights with distracting activities, desperate sleep techniques, evaluations of their lives, delusions, fears, panics and utter foolishness as they prepare to face the day.
    Five Characters in Search of a Good Night's Sleep was first performed by ViSiBLE Theatre Ensemble at Southwark Playhouse, London, in 2022, in a production directed by Mike Alfreds. It was devised and written by Mike Alfreds with Sonja Linden and members of the company.
    ViSiBLE is a theatre company dedicated to creating performance work that throws fresh perspectives on later life and living longer. A key aspect of its identity is creating work collaboratively, drawing on the creativity and talent of Britain's huge wealth of experienced older actors.
    'A masterclass in monologue… an interesting piece of theatre that encourages you to consider the torment of insomnia' - Upper Circle
    'The writing is beautifully candid… it's refreshing to see older characters portrayed in a multi-faceted way that explores existentialism and humanity rather than stereotyping and defining them by their age' - North West End UK
    'A great example of storytelling, with five sound monologues' - London Theatre Reviews

    You speak to me is about how something we come across or encounter resonates with us in different and diverse ways, can be part of our internal dialogue, or where we find ourselves being in two minds, feeling conflicted, or emotionally torn between what choices, decisions, and actions to make and take.
    
    This book intends to serve as a medium in promoting expression and connection through a collection of topical and theme based poetry in dialogue with one another highlighting metaphorically speaking, what speaks to us and what we need to tune into, attend, and respond to.
