Sinopsis

"When We Dead Awaken" is the final play of Henrik Ibsen, encapsulating his profound exploration of existential themes and the human condition. Written in 1899, this poignant work employs a symbolist style, blending realism with allegorical elements to investigate the complexities of identity, art, and the inevitability of mortality. Centered around the encounter between a sculptor and the women in his life, Ibsen crafts a narrative steeped in metaphysical inquiry, prompting readers to reflect upon the nature of awakening and the consequences of creative endeavor in a world fraught with societal constraints. Henrik Ibsen, often hailed as the father of modern drama, drew from his own experiences and societal observations when crafting his plays. His struggles with personal identity and the moral dilemmas of artistic expression in a rapidly changing world profoundly influenced his later works. Ibsen's own conflicts with societal expectations and his longing for authenticity resonate through the characters and themes of "When We Dead Awaken," reflecting a culmination of his philosophical and artistic journey. This remarkable play is highly recommended for those exploring the intersections of art, identity, and mortality. Ibsen's rich characterizations and thought-provoking dialogue make it a must-read for scholars and enthusiasts of modern literature alike, inviting readers to confront their own awakenings as they navigate the intricacies of life.

Imagine you're scared for your adult sibling. They're on the brink and you want to keep them safe. You think they're mentally ill but they think they're just leftwing.
To make the right choices together you'll need to know the right things. The big question: how do you know if you know the right things?
Where Sat the Lovers is about codes, hallucinations, Isaac Newton, war crimes, seeing meaning where there's none and vice versa. It's about facing an overwhelming world and trying to make sense of it all.
Created by Carys D. Coburn with MALAPROP Theatre, it was first staged at Project Arts Centre, Dublin, as part of the 2021 Dublin Fringe Festival, directed by Claire O'Reilly.

'People say life's too short, it's not. It's too bloody long. There's too much time and too many ways to fill it, all those hours in all those days, all those choices you have to make.'
Sam's eighteen and her life's about to start. Zoe's forty-something and hers never did. They don't have much in common. Just a love of '80s new wave, and an illness that wants them dead.
Thrown together in an eating disorder unit, their most intimate secrets exposed, they form a complicated bond. But when another patient turns the ward into chaos, they're forced to confront a difficult question: if an institution is the thing keeping you safe, how are you supposed to cope when you leave?
Authentic, witty and profoundly compassionate, Laura Waldren's play Some Demon won the Papatango New Writing Prize and the Clive Richards Foundation Writer in Residence Bursary, and was first produced by Papatango Theatre Company at the Arcola Theatre, London, and Bristol Old Vic in 2024.
