Beschreibung

Sana Abuleil presents a poetry collection of forgiveness, reflection, and self-love. letters to the person i was is a poetry collection about the past, the present, and the future. It is a compilation of every word Sana wishes someone had said to her when she was a young girl. When she was struggling. Falling. Breaking. Bleeding. It is a reflection of the responsibility she feels to say these words to everyone waiting to hear them. Consisting of four chapters titled "the innocence," "the refusing," "the understanding," and "the growing," the collection is meant to take the reader on a journey of pain and hope, reinforcing the idea that life is still worth living. That life is always worth living.

Human Resources - Poems

Winner of the Max Ritvo Poetry
Prize, Ryann Stevenson’s Human Resources is a sobering and
perceptive portrait of technology’s impact on connection and power.Human Resources follows
a woman working in the male-dominated world of AI, designing women that don’t
exist. In discerning verse, she workshops the
facial characteristics of a floating head named “Nia,” who her boss calls “his
type”; she loses hours researching “June,” an oddly sexualized artificially
intelligent oven; and she spends a whole day “trying to break” a female
self-improvement bot. The
speaker of Stevenson’s poems grapples with uneasiness and isolation, even as
she endeavors to solve for these problems in her daily work. She attempts to
harness control by eating clean, doing yoga, and searching for age-defying skin
care, though she dreams “about the department / that women get reassigned to
after they file / harassment complaints.” With sharp, lyrical intelligence, she
imagines alternative realities where women exist not for the whims of men but
for their own—where they become literal skyscrapers, towering over a world that
never appreciated them.Chilling and lucid, Human
Resources challenges the minds programming our present and future to consider
what serves the collective good. Something perhaps more thoughtful and human,
Stevenson writes: “I want to say better.”

'The end-of-the-world quiz waits for no man, literally. Onwards, ever onwards, to our fiery decline. Round three…'
It's the end of the world. The last night on Earth. An asteroid is heading straight for us and there's nothing we can do about it.
Except for maybe host a pub quiz – which is exactly what landlady Kathy and her quizmaster Rav are doing. But, with time ticking, some unexpected guests explode on the scene – Bobby wants to settle old scores, and Fran wants one last shot at love.
Alison Carr's play The Last Quiz Night on Earth is an innovative comedy-drama featuring a fully interactive pub quiz for the audience to participate in, complete with real teams, real questions and real swapping each other's answers for marking. It was premiered by Box of Tricks in 2020 on a UK tour, taking in a host of theatres, community venues and pubs.
Ideal for performance by amateurs – either in theatres or more unconventional spaces (such as theatre bars and local pubs) – this play offers rich opportunities for audience participation. Quizzing compulsory, alcohol optional.

The award-winning play that follows one man's desperate attempts to buck the system, and asks what really makes us who we are in the 21st century.
When a young executive reaches breaking point and decides to disappear, he pays a visit to a master of the craft in the form of a seafront fortune teller in Southend. Haunted by visitations from a pathologist who swears he is already lying flat out on her slab, he begins a nightmarish journey to the edge of existence that sees him stripped of everything that made him who he was.
How To Disappear Completely and Never Be Found was first performed at the Crucible Studio, Sheffield, in March 2007. It won the John Whiting Award for New Theatre Writing.
'an unsettling, dangerous play that makes you want to run away from yourself' Guardian
'the sort of thrilling new work that completely restores your faith in theatre' Sheffield Star
