Sinopse

'Humans. We're born of the stars.
Really think about that.
Try to remember that next time you're filling in your tax return.'
As Richard's climate concern grows more extreme, and his lifelong friend struggles with mortgages, parenthood and the stresses of modern living, a wedge is driven between them.
Suddenly Richard is dead, and his best friend isn't invited to the funeral. And now he can't let go, because something happened. Something he needs to lay to rest. And this is his chance…
Little Animals is a frank, funny and provocative one-man show which unfolds in a culture that can't stop consuming. It's about what we've lost, the stories we live by, and the ever-present chance to write ourselves a new one. 
It was conceived, written and performed by Paul Ready, directed by Caroline Steinbeis, produced by Fern Culture and first performed at The Lyceum Studio as part of the Traverse Theatre's 2026 Edinburgh Festival Fringe programme, where it won a Fringe First Award.

    William Morris was born in Walthamstow, London on 24th March 1834 he is regarded today as a foremost poet, writer, textile designer, artist and libertarian.  
    Morris began to publish poetry and short stories in 1856 through the Oxford and Cambridge Magazine which he founded with his friends and financed while at university. His first volume, in 1858, The Defence of Guenevere and Other  Poems, was the first published book of Pre-Raphaelite poetry. Due to its luke-warm reception he was discouraged from poetry writing for a number of years.  
    His return to poetry was with the great success of The Life and Death of Jason in 1867, which was followed by The Earthly Paradise, themed around a group of medieval wanderers searching for a land of everlasting life; after much disillusion, they discover a surviving colony of Greeks with whom they exchange stories. In the collection are retellings of Icelandic sagas. From then until his Socialist period Morris's fascination with the ancient Germanic and Norse peoples dominated his writing being the first to translate many of the Icelandic sagas into English; the epic retelling of the story of Sigurd the Volsung being his favourite.  
    In 1884 he founded the Socialist League but with the rise of the Anarchists in the party he left it in 1890.  
    In 1891 he founded the Kelmscott Press publishing limited edition illuminated style books.  His design for The Works of Geoffrey Chaucer is a masterpiece.  
    Morris was quietly approached with an offer of the Poet Laureateship after the death of Tennyson in 1892, but declined.  
    William Morris died at age 62 on 3rd October 1896 in London.

    'Who has a key to open all doors?
    
    When all doors open into closed rooms?
    
    One room contains the happiness of human lives.
    
    One room is furnished with desolation.
    
    One room is a silent swirling cosmos.
    
    But who has a key to open all doors?
    
    The golden key to a golden existence...?'
