Synopsis: what do Bron and Ace need with the past when they've got imagination and a tinted glass blue Marina 1800 TC ready to drive into the heart of Saturday night? This work is partly an art installation and partly a tense generational conflict, set in and around a house poised to fall into the sea. | ||||

Synopsis: House of America is an explosive passionate play about a family in Wales. After their truck-driver father left to start a new life for himself in America (because the roads are straighter), Sid and Gwenny created a fantasy world based on Jack Kerouac's On the Road, and they may be getting rather too close. Boyo, their brother, is a hometown boy with no home. Their mam goes mad after killing a cat called Brando and her agitation increases as the local open cast mine encroaches on land ever nearer to the family home. She has a secret - only, it isn't secret. | ||||

Synopsis: Stone City Blue has no discernible plot, setting or characters. Instead we have a quartet of young actors designated R 1-4, who scuttle around the stage in a kind of synchronised choreography, complete each other's sentences and dress like models from a casual-wear catalogue. R1 describes herself at one point as a lapsed Christian. R3 may be a whore; R4 is possibly a failed poet while R2 is the one who has a thing about trouser presses. They communicate in a series of bilious outbursts against the corporate world interspersed with rapid-fire question-and-answer sessions of the "Who am I? What am I? and What am I doing here?" variety: to which the answer is I haven't the faintest idea nor do I particularly care. - Alfred Hickling, Guardian | ||||
