  A wild party. A friendship. A cherished pet. And a night that changes everything.
  It's Julie's eighteenth birthday, and she's throwing a party in her father's extravagant townhouse. Her boyfriend has just dumped her and her long-suffering best friend Christine is trying to pick up the pieces. As the revellers pile into the booze, down in the kitchen Christine and her boyfriend Jon – son of Julie's cleaner – clear up and dare to dream of the future.
  But as the volume goes up and the shots go down, Julie concocts a twisted cocktail of privilege, desire and destruction.
  Laura Lomas's play The House Party spins Strindberg's classic play Miss Julie into intense, fizzing life for today's generation. It was first performed at the Minerva Theatre, Chichester, in 2024, co-produced with Headlong in association with Frantic Assembly, and directed by Holly Race Roughan.

  Drive

  " Silently / pulling for itself, / the will wants the body to // give it what it wants," Sexton writes in " Between the Car and the Sea," at once a description of a car' s body propelling her onward, and of the poet herself, the one behind the wheel of this masterful fourth collection. In an extraordinary act of volition, the author does not stop at the trope of ambition, but powers instead toward the urgent concerns of the will, and intention.
  
  
  In Drive, Sexton explores our most fragile points of connection— to lovers and family, to the living and the dead, and to oneself, one' s own life' s work— with the care and wisdom of one who knows these roads. In her hands, these delicate boundaries become navigable. They are both her route and her destination.
