Synopsis

'We have to keep up with the times. We're a business, not a soup kitchen, we might be busy but we're basically giving the food away for free.'
Hyltons' Caribbean takeaway is a much-loved restaurant in the heart of Liverpool. Built by Carol and her late husband into a bustling hub with a mouth-watering menu, it serves great food with a huge side-order of love.
But in a world of delivery apps, street-food markets and gourmet curry goat, the old ways are changing. Liverpool is changing too, with a luxury apartment block about to be built over a local playing field. Anger is rising, nobody can agree on anything any more, and things are getting spicy...
A feast of big laughs, family tensions and delicious food, Nathan Powell's play Takeaway premiered at Liverpool Everyman in 2025, directed by Amanda Huxtable.
Disponible depuis: 08/05/2025.

    Life has the capacity of great moments and attainment, of lives well-lived, both fulfilling for ourselves and those around us.  But for others life is arduous, there is no spark to ignite the curiosity, to explore a stability and a growth for their lives.   
    Indeed, their lives, in their own eyes, become almost meaningless, their sense of themselves subsumed under a myriad of problems, whether real or imagined. 
    Seismic events in their lives might crush them.  The loss of a loved one for instance.  Coping is difficult, support is hard to find, and isolation abounds.  We never really know the reason, or the motivation, but one final, dreadful way out is the solution. 
    In this volume our authors explore stories that help us understand and recognise a tragic circumstance.

    In the dark of the night

    Mary E. Mann does not flinch. In Little Brother, she leads us by the hand into a world where hunger is constant, sorrow is routine, and the arrival of a child is met with neither joy nor mourning—just another mouth, another burden, another resignation. Yet even in this bleakness, life goes on, in ways both unsettling and eerily familiar. A stark, unflinching glimpse into the realities of the forgotten, this story is as haunting as it is quietly devastating.

    The poetry of Brett Alan Dewing – together in one place for the first time. 
    Dewing's work examines life under God, lived in "the eucharistic world". With a keen sense of wit and wonder, Dewing stretches the boundaries of language and familiar forms (some of the poet's own design, such as the villanette and the vela). Believing that a poet is by nature at a loss for words and that every poem must be a failed attempt to express our "Substance Insubstantio", he has left no combination of words unturned during his decades-long career. 
    Covering a span of over 30 years, this collection includes four previously published collections:Have You Not Heard?Take, Eat, Remember, and BelieveReliquariesthe beginning of the blood: Christmas and Advent poems 
    as well as debuting some brand-new work.

    In the shadowed heart of the Appalachian Mountains, Bellevue was a town built on coal, secrets, and grudges that never die. Joe Galloway thought the worst was behind him. After surviving the storm that nearly destroyed his business, he’s determined to rebuild. But someone isn’t ready to let him rise from the ashes. When an OSHA inspector turned up dead, the town was gripped with fear—whispers spread that the Dark Hands crime family had arrived, bringing a new wave of violence with them. For fifteen years, Joe carved out his place in Bellevue, battling those who saw him as an outsider. But with enemies closing in from all sides, old rivalries reignite, and buried sins claw their way to the surface. The battle for Galloway mining was no longer about business—it’s about survival. Because in Bellevue, the past never stays buried. And this time, Joe Galloway may not make it out alive.
