    A punchy and provocative story about democracy, power, and how we can try to build a better world.
    A generation of young people has been let down. Schools are crumbling, the NHS is falling apart, and soon there won't be a planet left to save. It feels like the people in charge simply don't care.
    Pushed to the edge, a group of teenagers decide to create a future for themselves, carving out a utopia away from the failings of those who came before. But if you rebuild a society from the ground up, how do you avoid making the same mistakes?
    Abi Falase and Tatenda Shamiso's play The Village was first staged at the Almeida Theatre, London, performed by the Almeida Young Company.
    The Nick Hern Books Multiplay Drama series features large-cast plays specifically written to be performed by and appeal to young adults. For more information, visit www.multiplaydrama.co.uk.

    The language of Poetry is an art that most of us attempt at some point in our lives.  Although its commonplace exposure has been somewhat marginalised in today’s often fast-paced lives we all recognise good verse that can empathise with our thoughts or open us up to experience new things in new ways, to better understand and to enjoy the many strands of our lives. 
    But finding a starting point can be overwhelming, even off-putting, so in this series we offer up our Top 10 classic poets, who brim with talent and verse, on a range of subjects and themes that we can all enjoy. 
    The great city of London is perhaps unrivalled in its scale and effect on humankind down the centuries.  Its sprawl and its teeming throngs have shaped the world and even how we live today.  Within these 10 Women poets, who called this gloried city home, came poems that sought to define and explain just why that is.

    TikTok Dopamine Balls:   Mirth, Gongs & SingalongsThis poem is about the many varied experiences on TikTok. The high's, the lows, the fun, the throws.For a lot of Tiktokers, its a Dopamine fix, cavorting on cam, enjoying their 5 minutes ofTiktok fame. Lots go viral, and get enormous amounts of followers.Its all fun after all, its just one big Dopamine ball.Full of mirth, and singalongs, and the gongs of others.There's many things to say about Tiktok, but at the end of the day. It passes the time,in a positive rhymn like a Ticking tocking clock.
