Come to Where I am From
Synopsis:
Sixty one playwrights from across the UK return to their home towns to write plays about the places that shaped them. At 14 theatres from Bristol to Belfast, Cardiff to Coventry and Nottingham to Newcastle, these plays will be performed by the playwrights themselves, coming home to tell their tale. Come To Where I'm From is a theatrical tapestry of the UK, woven by writers asking if home is really where the heart is.

Fast Track
Six characters, one park: Fast Track follows six young city-dwellers whose lives collide on one life-changing day. Characters run, cycle, walk and hurtle past each other. Strangers confess, love and judge each other. They have one thing in common: they are all stuck in a relationship a relationship with money. They are trying to find ways to handle it: save it, steal it, exchange it, make it or get rid of it. And as the sun sets and night falls, the park becomes an altogether darker place... Pulsing with energy and dark humour, Fast Track exposes the beating heart of the city and the challenges faced by those that live in it.

Shoot! I Didn't Mean Thaat
Synopsis:
If I'd been drunk that would have made sense. A drunk Brit abroad. But no, I was sober. . . With a 'siege heil' here and a bang bang there, this dark comedy by Catriona Kerridge (Come to Where I'm From, Paines Plough) follows an interpreter, a tourist and two schoolgirls as they descend into a world of war crimes and disaster tourism.
