Sinopse

In "The Feast at Solhoug," Henrik Ibsen presents a critical examination of societal norms through a blend of realism and psychological depth. Set against the backdrop of a family celebration, the play subtly unravels the complex dynamics of class, gender, and moral hypocrisy that permeate Norwegian society of the late 19th century. Ibsen'Äôs use of dialogue is both naturalistic and poignant, allowing the characters'Äô intricate personalities to emerge while they navigate their conflicting desires and societal expectations. The narrative, rich with subtext, challenges the audience to reflect on the facades that individuals maintain in the face of social conventions. Henrik Ibsen, often hailed as the father of modern drama, drew upon his experiences in a rapidly changing society to craft works that interrogate human psychology and social roles. His own life, marked by personal struggles and a keen observation of the evolving societal landscapes of Scandinavia, informed his exploration of themes such as individualism and moral ambiguity. Ibsen'Äôs earlier works laid the foundation for his profound critique of societal norms, culminating in plays like "The Feast at Solhoug." This compelling drama is a must-read for any connoisseur of literature interested in the interplay of personal aspirations and social ethics. Ibsen's keen insights resonate with contemporary issues, making the play not only historically significant but also profoundly relevant for today's readers. Its rich character development and thematic depth offer a lens through which to examine the enduring complexities of human nature.

    When Harry Baker first started writing rap infused poetry he was advised to "write about what you know" so instead of writing about killing people, or driving fast cars (over people), he wrote about mathematics.
    
    It is not all complex maths and algebra however but throughout Harry applies his mathematician's mind to conjuring complex rhythms that have to be read out loud to be believed.

    Jacq and Kas's boutique restaurant has gone bust, and telling their oldest friends Adaego and her rich husband Tobin that his investment is toast is only the start of the evening.
    Cash, class, identity and infidelity are all on the menu. As the last of the expensive wine flows, a dangerous drinking game reveals long-hidden truths and provokes an unspeakable dare.
    Never Have I Ever is an explosive, savagely funny play which brilliantly skewers the contradictions of contemporary society, and the shifting sands of power and sexual politics. It premiered at the Minerva Theatre, Chichester, in 2023, directed by Emma Butler and starring Alex Roach, Amit Shah, Greg Wise and Susan Wokoma.
    Deborah Frances-White is a comedian, screenwriter and host of the global hit podcast The Guilty Feminist. This is her first play.

    ‘All of Nichol’s work is stamped by his desire to create texts that are engaging in themselves as well as in context, and to use indirect structural and textual devices to carry meaning. In The Martyrology different ways of speaking testify to a journey through different ways of being. Language is both the poet’s instructor and, through its various permutations, the dominant "image" of the poem. The [nine] books of The Martyrology document a poet’s quest for insight into himself and his writing through scrupulous attention to the messages hidden in the morphology of his own speech.’—Frank Davey
