How (Not) To Live In Suburbia

How (Not) To Live In Suburbia
A hilarious honest and brutal show about loneliness, with film. 5 years ago in the middle of a shitstorm of life events, artist, single mother and proud Londoner Annie Siddons found herself living in suburbia by accident. This hilarious, brutal and poignant show - combining live performance with films made by Annie and live artist Richard deDomenici, is about her gauche and wrongfooted attempts to fit in, the loneliness that ensued, and her quest to cure it.

Passion Of Jesus Christ

Synopsis:
It is plain to see that nothing is any good. All the world has felt his fatal attraction. In the city the people are massing, voices are rising, the peace is uneasy. Beyond the city they speak of a new leader, a miracle worker, a growing following. They say He has come - the revolution has started. In the corridors of power the authorities are summoned - something has to be done.

Raymondo

Raymondo
Raymondo and his brother Sparky have been locked in the cellar underneath their house for six years. An accident involving a pigeon enables their escape. But do the brothers have the requisite skills to survive a haphazard and cruel world? A play for one actor. Raymondo is a story of brotherhood, loss, incarceration, escape, survival, desire, art and resilience. It is a story about the shittiness of others, the kindness of others and Love. Simply told by a woman with a microphone and an atmospheric live score of guitars, loops and keyboard, Raymondo is a raw, dark, funny and tender lyrical narrative that will sear through your defences straight to your heart.
