The Rain

It’s been raining for days.
Once again the world has flooded but this time there is no Noah’s Arch. Nathan and his neighbour’s cat Clarice, who Nathan hates with passion, are seeking shelter in an abandoned barn.

And then Anna arrives.

They have never met before, or at least that is what they think at first. But they have met before. Anna is his classmate’s big sister who he hasn’t seen since he was eight. As the night unfolds they share stories, talk about their dreams and fears, their past and their uncertain future...

And then there is Clarice.

This is a bittersweet and slightly comical story about the end of the world, belonging, and a cat. It is about the stories we tell about ourselves, the stories we need to share with others, and the stories that shape us. After all a story is all that is left of us once we are gone.

Unless, of course, we are the last humans on earth.

    Wolves Are Coming For You

    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.
