  Ava and Tash are up on a cliff, looking out at the flocking birds – and at their future. On the cusp of adulthood and about to leave the care home they've shared, the two friends road-test their impending freedom and living in the outside world.
  Ava must confront the mother she left behind. Tash will have to look for a new home. And both girls will go on living dangerously with the men who surround them.
  Raw, delicate and bold, Bird is a story of growing up outside a family but inside the fiercest of friendships. It was the winner of a Judges' Award in the 2013 Bruntwood Prize for Playwriting, and premiered at Sherman Cymru in 2016 before transferring to the Royal Exchange, Manchester.

  Scandal forces Maria Posaltakis out of her job as a celebrity reporter. The paparazzi blacklists her, but media mogul Mark Bannerman takes her under his wing, intent on making Maria the newest addition to his politically-charged network AmeriPress News. 
  He brings her to Isla Loci, his private resort, to personally train her on sticking to the channel's message. Then Chester, Mark's youngest son from a failed marriage, comes to the island. He's a moody, overweight bookish type who's just graduated from college and hates his father with an intense passion. 
  • What mistake could be so heinous as to get Maria ostracized from an industry that makes questionable journalism calls every day? 
  • What are Mark's intentions towards Maria? Did he really hire her purely for her skill or does he want something more intimate? 
  • How will Chester respond to his father's interest in Maria? Is Chester interested in Maria? What else is Chester interested in... and how could it spell trouble for Mark's empire? 
  Against the backdrop of a tropical paradise, a family conflict is brewing. Maria has to choose a side - the man who gave her a chance but with questionable motive, or his idealistic young son whose naïveté may be his doom. What of Maria's own motives? What will she do to get back into the news world's good graces? How far will she go to keep from being Trapped in Margins, unable to be herself in a world all about finding out other people's secrets? 
  Short Story Press publishes short stories written by everyday writers.

  A gut-wrenchingly funny, achingly sad play featuring jaw-dropping moments of physical comedy.
  The lives of two men unravel over the course of ninety minutes. Where are they? Who are they? What room is this, and what might be beyond the walls?
  Ballyturk premiered at Galway International Arts Festival in 2014. It subsequently toured Ireland before opening at the National Theatre, London.
  'a richly theatrical experience' combines manic physical comedy with a meditation on the brevity of our earthly existence' imagine Under Milk Wood interpreted by Buster Keaton and you get the picture' Guardian
  'delirious and captivating' this is thrilling theatre, visceral and cerebral, hilarious and sad' Irish Examiner
  'ferocious physical slapstick comedy is interspersed with heartbreakingly tender and delicately poetic explorations of the soul... it throbs with searing poignancy at times, is riotously funny at others' a remarkable achievement' Irish Independent
