Annie Baker

In a run-down movie theatre in central Massachusetts, three underpaid employees mop the floors and attend to one of the last 35-millimetre film projectors in the state. Their tiny battles and not-so-tiny heartbreaks play out in the empty aisles, becoming more gripping than the lacklustre, second-run movies on screen.

Switzerland
Joanna Murray-Smith

What first appears to be a standard cat-and-mouse game of wit and wiles, soon becomes a dance to the death. Who is the cat and who is the mouse? And … who will make it out of Switzerland alive?

A chilling and sometimes hilarious two-hander, with Murray-Smith's signature lucid-lettered prose.

The House on the Lake
Aidan Fennessy
