  A young single mother becomes roommates with a seventy-nine-year-old man, in a small flat on the 19th floor of a council block.
  This short two-hander from the writer of Yen and and Chicken Shop explores the private worlds of strangers, living side by side but generations apart. Their interweaving monologues explore the differences and connections that can exist between people, living in the sky, just the other side of the thin wall.

  Mysterious yet compelling, bewildering yet intoxicating, a play that mixes poetic rhythms with vernacular phrases, rap-song repetitions with complex psychology.
  A husband and wife row about a prescription. A mother and father row about their son, who has become a child soldier. Two sisters row about which one is superior to the other. It emerges that the younger sister, Mary, has killed the child soldier. She is to be stoned to death...
  What if all these things were happening here? And what if these people were white?
  debbie tucker green's play stoning mary was first performed at the Royal Court Theatre, London, in April 2005.
  'A theatrical event that brands the conscience as firmly as any hot rod on goatskin... stoning mary is not pretty. It is not easy. But it will wind you with its punch' - Daily Mail
  'Works unnervingly well' - Evening Standard
  'One of the most assured and extraordinary new voices we've heard in a long while' - Independent

  Echoes (NHB Modern Plays)

  Henry Naylor

  Two British women, 175 years apart. One is a bright, Islamist schoolgirl; the other a Victorian colonial pioneer. The former would build a caliphate; the latter an Empire. Both are idealists; intelligent adventurers, with strong religious beliefs. Both are frustrated by societies which offer them few opportunities. And both would travel to the East, to impose their ideals upon unwilling peoples…
  Echoes is a bloody tale of colonialism – ancient and modern – and the rhyme of history. It is part of the Arabian Nightmares trilogy. It was first performed at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 2015, transferring to the Arcola Theatre, London, later that year.
  'Henry Naylor might be a bit of a genius... [He] uses language in an exquisite way, which always feels natural in the character's mouth. Some feat. The writing is evocative and full of imagery, yet sparse enough not to overload us and give us enough time to comprehend the storylines... This is a clever and subtly nuanced piece that examines the plight of women across time, through the lenses of sexual inequality, religious duty and betrayal.' - Broadway Baby
  'A dark and daring look at colonial cruelty... hugely impressive' - Guardian
  'Superbly written … a must see' - Sunday Times
