Celestial Fragments - On light...

Javier García Sánchez

Celestial Fragments is an audio and ebook collection of poems by artist Javier García Sánchez, recorded and edited by Emmy-winning storyteller Nil Tiberi.  
A collection of poetic meditations born in the in-between places—between longing and letting go, breaking and becoming, the personal and the divine.  
Written over years of inner transformation, these fragments arrived like visitors: notes from dreams, lines whispered in temples, reflections from seasons when life fell apart and re-formed in unexpected ways. Each piece is a small offering, a reminder that we are always becoming—and that clarity often emerges from the very moments we resist.  
These poems are prayers, thresholds, mirrors. For anyone seeking meaning, healing, or a hand to hold in the dark, Celestial Fragments invites you to find the sacred woven through the ordinary.

Accidental Death of an Anarchist...

Dario Fo, Franca Rame

An irrepressible fraudster known only as the Maniac is brought into Police Headquarters just as the officers are preparing for a judicial review of the recent 'accidental' death of a suspect in custody.
Outwitting his captors, the Maniac dupes them into performing a farcical recreation of the incident, exposing the absurd corruption and terrifying idiocy at the heart of the system.
Dario Fo and Franca Rame's riotous satire has been widely performed around the world since its premiere in 1970. Tom Basden's acclaimed adaptation was first performed at Sheffield Theatres in 2022, directed by Daniel Raggett, and starring Daniel Rigby as the Maniac.
The production transferred to the Lyric Hammersmith Theatre in 2023, before moving to the Theatre Royal Haymarket in London's West End.
'An Italian classic reborn as an unmissable police satire' - Metro

'A glorious comedy that leaps off the stage' - The Times
'A riotous satirical farce brought bang up to date… Tom Basden's full-blooded adaptation [is] a furious but funny broadside against police malpractice… supremely, dazzlingly funny' - Guardian
'A glorious romp from the super-talented Tom Basden' - Observer
