  Gather it from memory. Let it touch the earth.In Touch the Earth, Drew Jackson continues the project he began in God Speaks Through Wombs, reflecting on the Gospel of Luke through poetry. Touch the Earth picks up in chapter nine and continues through the end of Luke's Gospel. Part protest poetry, part biblical commentary, Jackson presents the gospel story in all its liberative power. Here the gospel is the "fresh words / that speak of / things impossible."From the feeding of the multitude ("The best hosts always provide / take home containers”) to the resurrection of Jesus ("the belly of mother Earth / is, indeed, a womb . . . the humus of life is where we become fully human"), this collection helps us hear the hum of deliverance—against all hope—that's been in the gospel all along.

  A thrillingly fast-paced play about youthful disaffection, protest and violence, drawing on the history of the Scuttlers, the youth gangs of nineteenth-century Manchester.
  It's 1885 and the streets of Manchester are crackling with energy, youth and violence.
  As workers pour into Ancoats to power the Industrial Revolution, 50,000 people are crammed into one square mile. The mills rumble thunderously day and night. The air is thick with smoke. Life is lived large and lived on the street. This is the world's very first industrial suburb and the young mill workers form the very first urban gangs, fighting over their territory with belts, fists and knives.
  Invisible in history, their lives, deaths, loves, lusts and defiant energy tell stories that will repeat and repeat over the decades that follow.
  Scuttlers by Rona Munro was first performed at the Royal Exchange Theatre, Manchester, in 2015.
  With nine leading roles and a large cast of mill workers and gang members, Scuttlers is well suited to performance by schools and youth groups, who will enjoy its physical energy and dramatic storyline.

  The third of our #WomenVote100 Anthologies:a showcase for poets Arachne has previously published in anthologies, giving an opportunity to explore their writing in greater depth.
  
  These are poems made of myth and family, origins and anger, journeys and home: witty, clever, beautiful and sometimes harsh.
  
  Whilst not directly reflecting on the experience of women fighting for the vote, the concerns of
  
  women are foremost and are passionately addressed.
  
  My own sex, I hope, will excuse me,
  
  if I treat them like rational creatures,
  
  instead of flattering their fascinating
  
  graces, as if they were in perpetual
  
  childhood, unable to stand alone.
  
  From Vindication by Anne Macaulay, a found poem based on the work of Mary Wollstonecraft.
