Kolonists by Steven Dykes

Directed by Steven Dykes

“This juicy steak of a play echoes themes from Chekhov’s Three Sisters. In place of the Prozorov trinity we have the Rusakovs, but they too see a comfortable little world fall apart under the hammer-blows of change … “ The Times

“As the politics is spiced up with family intrigue, ‘Kolonists’ descends into a gleefully vengeful territory alien to Chekhov. It’s engaging stuff: I was fascinated by the cultural insights, and entertained by the irreverent deviations from the revered original.” Time Out

Fleas by Imogen Cordelia Grover

Directed by Lizzy Connolly

Traversing decades and states in the United States, a kaleidoscope of characters confront the repercussions of abortion laws. A search for purpose and connection in a polarised society, Fleas is a non-linear look at how we place a value on life. Certain to make you itch.
