TIES directed by Moira Anne McAuslan
A young woman discovers an old, forgotten tie in her grandparents’ attic, sparking an emotional story of a family caught up in World War Two. The play explores the way we are tied together across time, bound by our shared humanity.
BLACKOUT directed by Craig McCulloch
A man wakes to find a dead person next to him on a sofa. What will he do with the body and how did it get there? A dark, twisted comedy.
TIME TO WAKE UP directed by Petre Dobre
A man is jolted from his armchair and onto a rollercoaster ride through the history of life on Earth… and a glimpse into its future. Performed by Petre himself, it’s a powerful examination of climate change, and the impact we are having on our planet.
