Tribes
Nina Raine

Billy's family, like every other, is a club, with its own private language, jokes and rules. You can be as rude as you like, as possessive as you like, as critical as you like. Arguments are an expression of love, and after all, you love each other more than anyone in the world. Don't you? But Billy, who is deaf, is the only one who actually listens. When he meets Sylvia, he decides he finally wants to be heard.

First Person Shooter
Paul Jenkins

A funny and foreboding play about what happens when gaming and military technology collide.

Bunny
Jack Thorne

An exhilarating coming-of-age drama for a solo performer.

Speechless
Linda Brogan, Polly Teale

The true-life drama of the extraordinary bond between two identical twin girls and their struggle to find a voice.

Penelope
Enda Walsh

A savage, tragicomic take on the classic Greek myth of Penelope, wife of Odysseus, whose story is recounted in Homer's Odyssey. It's 11.30 a.m. and already it's thirty-three degrees Celsius. At the bottom of a drained swimming pool, four ridiculous men face their inevitable deaths, and play for an unwinnable love.

La Bête
David Hirson

Written in a blaze of rhyming couplets, La Bête is an exuberant, wildly distinctive comedy that encompasses timeless concerns about life and art. Winner of the Olivier Award for Best New Comedy.

 

The Ragged Trousered Philanthropists
Robert Tressell Adapted by Howard Brenton

Passionate, highly entertaining and gloriously funny - Robert Tressell's classic pre-First World War account of the working lives of a group of housepainters and decorators is vividly adapted by Howard Brenton.

Love the Sinner
Drew Pautz

A tense and provocative play offering a remarkably fresh and painful take on our perpetual guilt in the face of poverty and brutality in the developing world.

Salome
Oscar Wilde

Salome, stepdaughter of King Herod, agrees to perform the mysterious and erotic Dance of the Seven Veils – but demands in return the head of the King's most infamous prisoner, Iokanaan (John the Baptist). To avoid censorship by the Lord Chamberlain, Wilde originally wrote Salome in French, and it premiered in Paris in 1896, while he was in prison. The play was finally seen in London in 1906, but has yet to gain the massive popularity of his comedies.

Me, As A Penguin
Tom Wells

A charmingly offbeat, surreal comedy of knitting, penguins and Battenberg.
