Sinopsis

'What we do is quintessentially British! And not just as an hobby, 'cause of what it depicts – which is this nation's history in all its glory! And that is why our show got trashed.'
The Market Deeping Model Railway Club's chances of victory at the Annual Show have been ripped apart by vandals, and the group must rally to piece their miniature world back together. 
When their story goes global, Chairman Graham, his long-suffering wife Linda and the eclectic bunch of enthusiasts must face the question: what exactly is it about their everyday lives that makes recreating the England of the past in miniature so appealing?
Based on a true story, The Market Deeping Model Railway Club is a warm and witty play that celebrates community, friendship and British eccentricity. It premiered at Nottingham Playhouse in 2026, directed by Adam Penford.
Wiliam Ivory is a BAFTA-nominated screenwriter, playwright and actor. His work for the screen includes Made in Dagenham and The Great Escaper, and for the stage includes Bomber's Moon and Diary of a Football Nobody.

    In the second Domesticated instalment, East Anglian punk poet, James Domestic, is once again taking potshots at work, so-called-punk-rock, outdoor and indoor pursuits, aging, right wing lunatics, politics, feet, and himself. As if that wasn’t enough, you’ll also find his trademark surrealism, sarcasm, and quintessentially British whimsy applied to animals, emails, food, and the power of music, alongside his idiosyncratic illustrations, and photographs from his murky past. 
      
    A man in too many bands to count, a solo artist, a vocalist, a songwriter, a DJ, a poet, a painter, and a punk. James Domestic failed miserably at school through the distractions of music, alcohol, and girls, spent his early post-school life between the chemical factory and the dole, and somehow now has a PhD. A square peg in life’s round hole. A face that never fitted. He couldn’t care less. Come along for the ride. 
      
    “A sardonic, sarcastic wit, a penchant for the surreal, and a dynamic pace” (Nathan Brown, Louder Than War) 
      
    “Words that bite, belch, and bleed in their brilliance” (Mark Grist, multi-award-winning poet and battle rapper) 
      
    “A unique collection of poetic ventures into the human condition, with humour, anger, and a canny use of language: inspired and inspiring!” (Dick Lucas, Subhumans, Culture Shock etc.)

    Violeta Garcia-Mendoza’s luminous debut seeks out ways of coping in a complicated age. Exploring the constraints and anxieties of midlife in the midst of climate breakdown, of motherhood in a period of personal and planetary vulnerability, these poems speak to the persistence of nature, creativity, and love: necessary sources of hope and beauty, the ties that bind us to this shared and sacred place. Here is a lyrical and resonant new songbook for survival, a flight across the uneasy darkness, a shining course through the “wreckage strung with violets.”

    Winner of the 2024 New Poets Prize, judged by Holly Hopkins.
    A gold bangle, a barber's shop and Diana Princess of Wales in an Indian wedding video. In Lobe, Cia Mangat navigates what we inherit and what we leave behind in a book which plays with private and public mythologies. These poems create a world of love and surveillance, where Diana's revenge dress prepares for the paparazzi and aunties gossip in the threading parlor. Bodies are pierced and cut from magazines while the wedding halls beckon. Lobe is a book of resistance and reimagining, where Di escapes her buttercream wedding, a woman shaves her head and 'george michael will sing every song you have ever wanted to you /directly accompanied by hundreds of thousands of people you love'.

    Modern Man ~ Neanderthal with Manners 
    Poem about the comparison of what it is to be a Modern man today. What it may have been yesterday, and what it 
    was to compare it to our relatively recent ancestors from just a hundred thousand years or so 
    - The Neanderthals. 
    Would they have been as cruel to their fellow beings as possibly we are today. What does it mean to be classified as 
    MODERN ! A modern Human ?

    Ami’s dream is to make the world a better place. As a lover of nature and an adventurer, she is concerned about the environment and seeks to make it safer. 
    Unfortunately, she would realise that her friends—the various elements of nature, are in danger due to the behaviour of human beings. As a caring friend, she is willing to do her best to save them. 
    This book underscores the journey and adventures of Ami, starting from her desire to help Sun get its smile back, helping animals to survive, understanding the role of the Moon and the Earth, to taking actions to make the world a better and safer place.
