  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.

  The year is 2043, and Reem and her husband Sayeed are going to share a 'Serious Play about Palestine'. Things are tense. People are on the edge. The Fifth Intifada is right around the corner. But on a contested piece of land near their village of Beit al-Qadir, Reem and Sayeed are about to go dogging. Don't worry, you're allowed to laugh.
  Sami Ibrahim's play two Palestinians go dogging uses the lens of humour to explore how the everyday becomes political and the political becomes everyday in a conflict zone.

  There’s nothing a mother wouldn’t do for her children – even if it means telling a lie… 
  Sisters Georgie and Kate have always been close. Brought up by their mum Jan after the death of their father, this family of women have always been able to rely on each other.  
  Jan loves her daughters with all her heart. She knows some people think she’s an over-protective mother, but they didn’t know what she knows. She has always kept her girls close but now she can feel them slipping away. 
  Secrets have a nasty habit of refusing to stay hidden, and now Georgie and Kate are about to discover that while lies can cause pain, the truth could destroy them all. 
  Two beloved girls. The mother who adores him. The secret that could tear them apart. 
  Bestselling novelist Clare Swatman returns with a heart-breaking, devastating, but ultimately uplifting story about mothers, daughters and the bonds of love. 
  Praise for Clare Swatman: 
  'Before We Grow Old is an unashamedly big, life-affirming, tear-jerking love story. Beautifully told, characters Fran and Will had me from the first page, and crying buckets by the last ! Just gorgeous.' Katy Regan 
  'Before We Grow Old took me on an intense emotional journey, and I cried at the end (and I rarely cry when I'm reading!) The portrayal of the mother and son bond - with its peaks and troughs of intensity and frustration - felt incredibly real, and the dialogue in particular was brilliantly done.' Victoria Scott  
  'A beautifully written tale of enduring love' - Rowan Coleman  
  'Irresistible . . . A delightfully bittersweet story that will appeal to fans of One Day' - Sunday Mirror 'Wonderful' - Sun
