Synopsis

In "The Complete Poems of Percy Bysshe Shelley," readers are invited to immerse themselves in the ethereal and revolutionary verses of one of the foremost figures of the Romantic movement. This comprehensive anthology encapsulates Shelley's diverse poetic range—from the hauntingly beautiful imagery of his lyrical poems to the passionate political manifestos that boldly challenge societal norms. Employing lush language and innovative metaphors, Shelley's work weaves themes of nature, love, and individualism, all resonating with the tumultuous spirit of early 19th-century England where he sought to inspire change and enlightenment. Shelley's intricate syntax and musicality highlight not only his poetic prowess but also his philosophical inquiries into the human condition and the nature of existence. Percy Bysshe Shelley was not merely a poet but a radical thinker influenced by his socio-political milieu, having experienced exile and ostracism due to his progressive views. Born in 1792, his life was punctuated by personal tragedies and political upheaval, experiences that profoundly influenced his writing. Such tumult served to fuel his passionate advocacy for social justice and personal freedom, making his poetry a vehicle for both personal expression and broader societal critique. This anthology is a must-read for anyone interested in the evolution of poetry and the intricacies of the human spirit. Shelley's complete works present an opportunity to engage with a poignant voice that challenged conventions and dared to dream of a better world. Readers will find not only the beauty of lyrical expression but also a powerful call to introspection and action, making this collection an indispensable addition to the literary canon.

    In 1988, two Birmingham school friends tentatively come out to one another: Edward as gay; Peter, even more daringly, as an ABBA fan.
    Nearly thirty years later, they meet again – and take a chance by forming the world's first ABBA tribute band in drag. It's a riot of platform boots and dodgy beards, 'Waterloos' and 'Chiquititas', and they couldn't escape if they wanted to. But can Edward and Peter's friendship survive the tribulations of a life on the road?
    Ian Hallard's The Way Old Friends Do is a tender, laugh-out-loud comedy about devotion, desire and dancing queens. It premiered at Birmingham Rep in 2023, directed by Mark Gatiss, before touring the UK, including a run at Park Theatre, London.
    The play offers every theatre company and drama group all the ingredients to give their audience the time of its life.

    'That's all I ask from anyone. That we try to make the people happy.'
    Bill Shankly had one aim: to make Liverpool Football Club invincible.
    As its manager from 1959, he secured the team promotion, the First Division title, the FA Cup and success in Europe. For fifteen years, he defined what it was to be a Liverpool fan, and demanded total loyalty from his players and coaches. A loyalty that Bill hoped would be repaid when he retired...
    David Peace's iconic novel Red or Dead is the fictionalised story of a game, a life, and a man of two halves. This stage version was adapted and directed by Phillip Breen, and first performed at Liverpool's Royal Court in 2025, with a cast including Peter Mullan as Bill Shankly.
    The novel was shortlisted for the Goldsmiths Prize and has been widely acclaimed:
    'David Peace brings perfect pitch to this ode to Bill Shankly's Liverpool reign' Frank Cottrell-Boyce, Observer
    'A love letter to a great manager, an elegy to the beautiful game' Independent
    'So hypnotic that even the football-averse might enjoy it' Guardian
