Twelfth Night ( or Bollywood What You Will)

Punk Rock by Simon Stephens

The Road to Damascus played out in a fully immersive theatre style_ is a marriage drama, a mystery drama, and a drama of penance and conversion.

THE GUT GIRLSThis hard-hitting play by Sarah Daniels is set in Victorian South East London: the docks are alive and buzzing with traders, ships and livestock ready to be sent to the slaughter shedsEnter -The Gut Girls -They are a rowdy bunch – with language that would stagger a horse and muscles that could floor a man.

But they earn in a week what a girl in service earns in a year. In the pubs and music halls of Deptford they are notorious for loud laughter, outrageous hats and wearing no knickers.

Community Theatre TourThe toilet- A room of one’s own?Welcome to the London Ladies Lavatory. In use for over a century, its walls have seen it all: the Suffragettes, the Great War, the Roaring Twenties, Swinging Sixties and Naughty Noughties. This is a space where women (and the odd man!) have come to share their stories, their secrets, hopes, desires and fears. ‘Public Inconveniences’ lifts the lids on the private lives of men and women from the 20th and 21st centuries, taking inspiration from the idea that ‘the personal is political’.

Lady Windermere's Fan- Directed by Petina Hapgood “London is full of women who trust their husbands. One can always recognize them. They look so thoroughly unhappy. I am not going to be one of them “(Lady Windermere)Oscar Wilde's witty dialogue, social satire and outrageous paradoxes for which he is still remembered are most evident in Lady Windermere’s Fan. Wilde's play shows us the destructiveness of gossip and superficial judgement. It examines the ambiguous sexual morality and gender politics at the heart of the British ruling class, while simultaneously challenging our perception of what constitutes a good womanSet In a world of Art Deco - Director (Petina Hapgood) gives the play a fresh, contemporary feel.
