Double Effect

Synopsis:
The play is an emotive exploration of family life confronted with the complex horrors of euthanasia. Dying of lung cancer, Joyce longs to be reunited with her dead husband and to skip the agony that lies ahead. But her family, torn between ethical concerns and a selfish love, struggle to let her go. A refined sense of the absurdities of family life, and a brutally honest approach to death result in a subtle play both poignant and funny.

Original Spin

Synopsis:
a comedy set in the 1950s. Ex-RAF pilot Thomas Goodman is pioneering a new concept in modern business - public relations. But his costly experiment is causing friction at home where Vera, his wife and business partner, wants him to concentrate on his personal relations. Tom's sunny disposition and eternal optimism seem to have been well placed, when Randolph Cork, proprietor of the Shaker Drinks Company, drops in to find out more about Tom's business. Unbeknown to Tom though, Randolph is really interested in re-establishing his relationship with Vera, whom he knew many years before.
