Zitat:
My radio play Love is not new in this country will be broadcast on BBC Radio 3 on February 4th at 9pm (not 9.30 as some listings state), and will then be on iplayer, for 30 days. It is based on a true story about a troupe of Afghan actors who put on a production of Love's Labour's Lost in Kabul in 2005, and it is about defying tyranny and coming together to stand up for art and joy. It is adapted from a book, A Night in the Emperor's Garden by Qais Akbar Omar and Stephen Landrigan, and it is directed by Jeremy Mortimer. Listen to it here....
My last play was The Only Jew in England, commissioned for East 15 Drama School. It premiered at Queens Theatre Hornchurch in 2017, directed by Matthew Lloyd.
How to Date a Feminist premiered at the Arcola Theatre in 2016, directed by Matthew Lloyd, designed by Carla Goodman and starring Tom Berish and Sarah Daykin. It is published by Nick Hern Books and you can buy the play text here.

Zitat:
Use Me As Your Cardigan
I didn't want a child. My biological clock was not ticking. I never put a cushion up my jumper. You were so into it, you even got empathy pains. Dan wanted a baby. Stacy didn't. Most accidents happen in the home. This bitter sweet comedy takes a sly look at postnatal depression. Use Me As Your Cardigan is produced as part of the 10xTen Festival.
Performers Richard Armitage, Joanna Bending, Imogen Butler-Cole, Tim Hyam.
