  'People don't need scissors. They don't need beautiful, handcrafted, ninety pound scissors, however impressive they might be. But they do need somewhere to live.'
  Faye and Mel have been together forever. Two kids, a mortgage and a diabetic hamster. A regular, unexceptional existence. They work hard, they get by, they do their best. So if it's true - if Faye's father really has left the factory to her - they'd deserve it, wouldn't they? The site could be worth a fortune - not for making scissors, but ripe for redevelopment. It could change everything. But first they need the paperwork.
  Paper is a play about family, heritage and legacy, and is part of Chris Bush's triptych of plays about a Sheffield manufacturing family, Rock / Paper / Scissors. The three plays were first performed simultaneously with the same cast moving between three theatres in Sheffield – the Crucible, the Lyceum and the Studio – as part of Sheffield Theatres' fiftieth birthday celebrations in 2022.

  "Breathtaking . . . will change the way you see the world." —Daisy Goodwin, author of The American Heiress

  In poetry that is at once bold and lyrical, affecting and devastatingly frank, Miranda Cowley Heller takes us through childhood, marriage, motherhood, and beyond. Suffused with the natural world and the landscape of Cape Cod, where many of the poems are set, What the Deep Water Knows contemplates love in all the seasons.

  In New York City's Washington Square Park,  
  An old familiar war is being waged between those in power,  
  and those who refuse to conform. 
    
  Blue Jay Walker has been a street busker all his life. Traveling across countries he earns his keep by writing poems for passers-by on his worn typewriter. 
    
  In the summer of 2023 when he arrived at one of his favourite haunts for hawking poems, he was dismayed to discover the authorities had banned all artists from making their living in the park. 
    
  However the artists were not giving up their home without a fight. Inspired by their tenacity, Walker joined the fray. Sticking a proverbial flag in the ground at the center of the park he began writing what would quickly become The Longest Physical Poem Of The 21st Century. 
    
  The 240 foot scroll is a distillation of all the wandering truth he has gained along his travels, twisted through the spiraling narrative of the Vagrants and Bards who have taught him not only how to make art, but how to see the world in a different light.

  At the core of this debut collection is a question – what is worth holding onto?
  Through poetic experiments that blend the academic and the artistic, Rhiya Pau queries complex characters and tender landscapes. Routes journeys from Ba's kitchen in Sonia Gardens to Independence hour in Delhi, across the pink shores of Nakuru, to meet a painter on Lee High Road.
  Celebrating fifty years since her community arrived in the UK, Pau chronicles the migratory histories of her ancestors and simultaneously lays bare the conflicts of identity that arise from being a member of the East African-Indian diaspora. In this multilingual discourse exhibiting vast formal range, Pau wrestles with language, narrative and memory, daring to navigate their collective fallibilities to architect her own identity.
  '[Routes]...holds up to the light the wisdom of the past, and asks what else is passed down along with it...a work of humane intelligence, formal experiment and linguistic verve' - Sarah Howe, Judge of Eric Gregory Awards 2022
