This year's performances include…

Rosemary goes Digital
Rosemary's alter ego, Rose-Marie, is back with a vengeance! Follow her on 'Facebook' and see what happens when Rosemary goes digital.

Children of Ishtar
The Grand Guignol meets 'planed parenting' in a bloody out come.

Mr Tick the Teacher
Mr Tick teaches his six children at their little school. But when they hear that small schools have to close, the family have to come up with a way to trick the school inspector. (Inspired by the book of the same title by Allan Ahlbergh.)

The Soul
Ever had a dream that stayed with you? Ever seen a shadow and thought it was something else? Ever wondered if 'this' is all there is? One friend living in a world of shadows has a dream of flying through a sky she's never seen. She tells her story to her best friend. And their journey begins.

Work ranges from comedies, dramas, new texts,
new translations, to movement-based pieces,
silent pieces, pieces inundated with music, and
physical theatre.

We use this chance to experiment and create
without the pressures of a full-scale production.
If we feel one idea worked really well, we
develop it into a full production.
