The Real Ones
Waleed Akhtar

Best friends Zaid and Neelam shared a dream: get away, make it as writers, build a future where they're free to be themselves. Together, always. Years later, Zaid's life has kinda stalled – he's half out the closet, living at home and still chasing the dream, while Neelam's has taken a completely different path. As their lives pull further apart, leaving a mess of unsaid things between them, it's going to take something real to bring them back together.

Rona Munro

Holding the Man
Tommy Murphy

Tommy Murphy's stage adaptation faithfully captures the book's heart-wrenchingly honest portrayal of a fifteen-year relationship, but also succeeds in transforming it into a unique theatrical experience that is wholly his own. The play won multiple awards and had seasons across Australia and internationally. 

A Song for Ella Grey

A Song for Ella Grey is a version of the myth of Orpheus that sings of the madness of youth, the ache of love, and the near-impossibility of grasping death.
