Chilcot
Tasked with investigating Britain's role in the Iraq War, the evidence presented to the Chilcot Inquiry was devastating and stark. Drawing together testimonies from leading political players with the forgotten voices of Iraqi refugees, veterans and military families against war - this pertinent and bold piece of documentary theatre explores the accountability of those who have power over us.

Dolly Wants to Die
Synopsis:
Meet Dolly: a potty-mouth, chain-smoking toy doll. She can sing, dance, throw a tea party like a bitch literally, anything! Except, that is, the one thing she wants most in the world. Dolly can't die. A victim of Cameron's Britain, this doll is done playing nice. Presenting first world problems in an imaginary world this offbeat comedy - through music, storytelling and stand-up - explores the peril of entering adulthood and the absolute ball ache of being alive.
