Branching Out Complications Duplex Dying to be Heard Four PlayBranching Out
Synopsis:
Three gallant eco-warriors climb a condemned tree as part of an anti-road development protest. Rachel is there for the glory, Derek is there because he fancies Rachel and Pauline is there because she genuinely cares about the fate of the tree - providing the protest is completed before Saturday because she has to go to a wedding!

Top of PageComplications
Synopsis:
Complications. Because life is, well "complicated". More often than not though, it is only complicated because we make it so. This double-bill of one act plays examines how Complications can affect us, both on the dark side of life and on the lighter side. Duplex deals with those darker issues that crop up in everyday life with what seems like the sole purpose of destroying us or everything we work so hard for. Sometimes it is working too hard that brings the issues on in the first place. We join Paul and Judy Wentworth as they try and make sense of the crazy world around them in a drama that builds up the tension throughout just to hit you in the face as the curtain closes. Four Play on the other hand is a farcical romp, where we can watch the action unfold with a smile on our faces, wondering just how Gary is going to pull the whole mess together before the end. Quite honestly, without Complications life would be just too boring indeed!

Synopsis:
Paul's financial troubles finally come to a head in a violent way. Are all his problems caused by his mental state or does he have a 'double' running around intent on ruining his life. The answer is offered during the dramatic climax but the audience is left with maybe one or two more questions than answers
