- "The Diary of Anne Frank" by Francis Goodrich and Albert Hackett,
directed by Brittany Rex
Amsterdam, 1942. In a cramped, secret annex, eight people hide in an attempt to evade Nazi deportation. Anne Frank, a teenage girl with a vibrant spirit and a gift for writing, chronicles their harrowing experiences in her diary. This undeniably moving human story speaks to today’s increasingly nationalistic world. Anne’s words reach out to us over the generations, inspiring us to never forget, to never give up on the power and goodness of the human spirit, and to always “fill life with living”.

- "Under Milk Wood" by Dylan Thomas,directed by Dick Bower
This "play for voices" was originally performed as a radio play and tells the story of a day in the life of the inhabitants of the small Welsh seaside village of Llareggub. Lyrically written, it is both riotously funny, riskily bawdy and deeply moving, and although firmly rooted in place, the universality of the characters shines through. The language is rich and deeply evocative of its place and people and has earned its acclaimed place in English and Welsh literature. Polish up your Welsh accents!

- "Handbagged" by Moira Buffini, directed by Brian Aris
Handbags, hairspray and sensible shoes. The monarch - Liz. Her most powerful subject - Maggie. One believed there was no such thing as society. The other had vowed to serve it. This play imagines the private conversations that took place between the Queen and Margaret Thatcher when she was PM, and the relationship between the two.
This play opens the clasp on the antipathy between two giants of the twentieth century and was nominated for the Laurence Olivier Best New Comedy Award in 2015.
