Enter Smokey, a tearaway whose girlfriend is none other than - Catherine's and Tom's daughter Belinda.

Killing Time

Richard Stockwell
A chance meeting brings Rick and Jane together at Rick's house in this clever and challenging thriller. At first, their conversation seems innocent. Gradually the truth emerges: it is not Rick's house at all; he engineered their meeting; he knows about Jane's marriage to a violent and unsavory man and he wants that man dead for his own reasons. Jane is happy with his plan, but she is not what she appears to be either. The encounter becomes combative as the characters alternate between predator and prey

Prize, The

Richard Stockwell
For some making it to London 2012 has been literally a matter of life and death and the struggle is not over yet. Get the inside track into the true stories behind Olympic success from the team that presented the multi award-winning show Motherland, the hit of the 2008 Edinburgh Fringe Festival. The play draws on interviews with past Olympic medal winners and aspiring first time competitors. Full of sacrifice, tragedy and touching humour, these stories are brought to life with dynamic physicality taking the audience on a journey - the inside experience of being an elite athlete striving for the ultimate prize.
