A wife, a muse, a coward, a heretic. Hedda Gabler is something to everyone, yet has no idea who she is to herself. Trapped by convention and by her own irreconcilable nature, will she have the courage to shape her own destiny? Mark O'Rowe's fluid yet faithful adaptation of Ibsen's masterpiece premiered at the Abbey Theatre, Dublin, in April.
Phil and Alice are in love - familiar, flawed, ordinary love. They are on a journey, but this journey doesn't have an A to Z. Jack Thorne's The Solid Life of Sugar Water is an intimate, tender play about loss, hurt and rediscovery. It previewed at The Drum, Theatre Royal Plymouth, and premiered at the 2015 Edinburgh Festival Fringe, in a co-production between Graeae Theatre Company and Theatre Royal Plymouth.Mostra libro

7:34pmOne day you too will have stopped searching strangers’ eyes for companionship.You won’t lie in a cold bed with nothing but dark thoughts to warm you.You will not order a pizza for yourself in an empty apartment.One day you will look into your lover’s eyes.You will no longer feel alone. The poetry of 2am Thoughts condenses an entire relationship, with all its untamed emotions and experiences, into a single day. As the long hours of the night drag on, we experience the obsession, fear, neuroticism, and the deep, universal longing for love. ‘This was a journey of nostalgia. I was swept up in memories of first love, first heartbreak, and healing, all within the span of one evening’ Courtney Peppernell, author of Pillow ThoughtsMostra libro

An epic fable set in the faraway Spanish Golden Age. When a Duke from Spain embarks on a military adventure to save Venice and his reputation, the consequences are not what he expects... Jo Clifford's play Losing Venice is a joyously original, witty take-down of dangerously daft machismo and the deranged behaviour of countries that have lost an empire and still not yet found a role. Losing Venice was first performed at the Traverse Theatre, Edinburgh, in 1985. It was revived at the Orange Tree Theatre, Richmond, in September 2018. 'A truly outstanding first stage play' - New StatesmanMostra libro
