Exodus

Exodus
In South Wales, on the eve of the last factory in town closing, four neighbours hatch a plan that is literally pie in the sky& Mary, Ray, Mike and Timmy gather in an allotment, decide to build a plane, and take off down the high street. Past the butchers, past the curry house and above the Chapel in search of a life free from politics and the grind. Blisteringly funny, this heart-warming new drama is accompanied by a live original score by David Grubb with choreography from Emma Vickery culminating in a new adventure that makes anything seem possible.

Good Earth, The

Synopsis:
A new Welsh story about fighting for community. How would you feel if an outsider came to the village your family had lived in for generations and told you all to leave? Nestled deep in the Welsh Valleys, The Good Earth is an explosive new protest inspired by true events. The action unfolds through physical theatre, rousing Welsh folk song and new writing, bringing to life a valley torn apart by their council, big business and eventually themselves.
