  Girls From the County

  This book is merely a record of dark events, the kind that you can sometimes move on from, yet can’t help but see in every old house, high school, or crumbling bridge. 
  In the county, eerie stillness can be mistaken for stagnation. In the county, rumination on pain and guilt can be confused with omens and curses. In the county, feelings of claustrophobia stem from understanding what the encroaching darkness brings with it. 
  You’ve heard of country girls, and city girls, but what of the forgotten girls from the in-between space of the county? Confronting the things too wild for urban areas, and too methodically malevolent for the countryside, girls from the county are often dismissed by popular narratives, left to solve riddles of grief and rage for themselves. 
  Known for weaving folk horror with confessional poetry, unflinching true crime approaches with myth and fable, contemporary appetites with gothic literature, award-winning author Donna Lynch has composed a lyrical reconstruction for readers to navigate the lives—and deaths—of girls from the county.

  'After thousands of years, I have a mouth… So if you don't mind, Mum, Dad, I'm going to speak. I'm going to shout. When I become a human I'm going to use some words. Can you still hear me? Is my microphone on?'
  Young people have inherited a burning world. In Jordan Tannahill's urgent and lyrical play, they reckon with the generations who have come before them, questioning the choices that have been made, and the ones that they will yet be forced to make.
  In Is My Microphone On? an ensemble of young performers hold the audience to account, and invite them to experience the world together anew.
  The play was commissioned by the Theater der Welt festival in Germany, premiered in English by Canadian Stage, Toronto, in 2021, and performed by youth theatres across the UK as part of the 2023 National Theatre Connections Festival. It offers opportunities for a large, flexible cast of any size or mix of genders, and can incorporate chorus work, movement and music.

  'I'm going to smash the windows.'
  When contented housewife Edith wanders by accident into a suffragette meeting, she has no plans for revolution. But the women she meets there will change her life forever.
  Increasingly concerned by the harsh treatment the protesters receive, Edith finds herself drawn ever closer to the radical centre of the movement. Where does she draw the line in the fight for equality? How far will they have to go? 
  Beth Flintoff's play Rebellious Women is an impassioned, unsentimental and sharp-witted tribute to the suffragette cause. It was premiered, in an earlier version as The Rebellious Women of Wimbledon, by Attic Theatre Company in 2018.
  This version of the play offers rich opportunities for schools, youth theatres and drama societies who want to tell the story of a group of extraordinary women who changed the world.
