: | The play highlights the needless slaughter of World War I particularly on the final day. It throws together a range of characters who together suffer the trauma of the trenches. The play touches on the family of one of the soldiers and how they cope at home .... it has an unexpected and interesting twist at the end. |

: | Life throws up many challenges and problems, failures and successes, triumphs and defeats; and at each age of man, worries are relevant and no less important. Each contrasting scene illustrates that what may appear trivial to one may be vital to another; each story has its antithesis; each runs on Parallel Lines. |
Ward Baker | Wishing Box, The |
: | Everybody dreams that they could have whatever they wish. Unfortunately we don't always wish for the things which would be best for us. Perhaps we can learn from living out our wishes and experience what it is like when we wish upon a star. |
Andra Bishop | Bermuda Tangle |
