Top of PageEighth Day, The
Synopsis:
the eighth Day vividly reveals what it's really like to lose everything. Sam Thwaites has gone from successful businessman to homeless person in a flash, and the play is a darkly comic examination of the frustration and helplessness he experiences. Job, car, home, wife, daughter all gone, Sam is left only with the family dog. Yet his one possession stands between him and a warm bed as his eighth day in a hostel approaches, and a big decision has to be made. the eighth Day is both deeply moving and laugh-out-loud funny.

Synopsis:
a two act play telling the tale of Shoeshine, whose post at a railway station allows him to observe people at times of heightened emotion - during fond reunions and sad farewells. His empathy and quiet wisdom helps those he meets. Mostly unnoticed by passers-by, he quietly observes every last detail. People who visit him may find he knows more about them than they find comfortable. . .

Top of PageSinbadaladdin!
Richard Lloyd's hilarious new pantomime Sinbadaladdin! adds elements of the tale of Sinbad the sailor to the tradtional story of aladdin. the result is a bumper pantomime offering parts for two principal boys and two genies - the slave of the lamp and the Slave of the Ring, as well as many other good roles for both male and female actors. Widow Twankee gets up to her usual mischief as manageress of Chinese laundry - not so ably assisted by slopper-out Wishee-Washee, while the beautiful and feisty Princess Jasmine steals aladdin's heart and risks the wrath of her father, the Sultan Ming the Mirthless, and her mother Sultana No-Lo-Fat. the terrifying magician abanazar, meanwhile, proves a formidable rival for Jasmine's hand in marriage.
