The Snail House
Richard Eyre

The Snail House is a play about how the past impacts on the present, and how overconfidence can have disastrous consequences.

Rough Trade
Katie Pollock

Part stand-up, part takedown of capitalism, part wannabe dancing dildo musical, this one-woman play is a celebration of resilience, humour … and sex toys!

Charlotte is a Berliner through and through. Tom is a foreigner, travelling around Europe. After meeting in a bar, sparks fly between them and she invites him to spend the night at her place.
