Love and Money
by Dennis Kelly
“I’ll get a job and a house and the right shoes”.
David conducts an office romance by email. He has love at his fingertips but a shocking admission unravels his relationship.
Jess loves David and she believes that if she has a job and a house and the right shoes then happiness can be bought – but at what price?
A heart-wrenching black comedy that is set in a fractured and dysfunctional world of easy credit, bad debts and dark desires.
An examination of how love is destroyed by materialism... told backwards.

by Joel Horwood
Set over one extraordinary day in an ordinary village, Wolves Are Coming For You explores just how much wild we're comfortable with, as a small community is forced to pull together against an invisible but potentially deadly threat.
Someone has seen a wolf. Where did it come from? How many are there? Someone must be able to do something about them. Otherwise, how will our children get to school?
Someone has seen a wolf! Or did they?
As the story spreads through the town over the following 24 hours, each of the characters is forced to confront their own demons and decide whether to fight or flee. And as the sun rises the following day, each of them is different in some way from the person they were the day before. Whether the wolves actually existed, we’ll never know – but they’ve served their purpose nonetheless.
