The Two Worlds of Charlie F. moves through the stages of service, from the war in Afghanistan to dream-like states of morphine-induced hallucinations to the physio rooms of Headley Court. All through the view of soldier Charlie Fowler's service, injury and recovery. The play explores themes of physical and psychological injury and its effects on soldiers as they fight for survival. Drawn from the personal experience of the wounded, injured and sick service personnel involved, The Two Worlds of Charlie F. premiered at the Theatre Royal Haymarket, London, in January 2012 and toured nationally that summer. It was revived for an international tour in 2014. "Powerfully affecting - Gripping. The authenticity of verbatim drama and the saltiness of barracks-room humour with the finesse of something more lyrical." - Telegraph "An evening of rare, raw power." - Independent

Zameen (Paperback): Satinder Kaur Chohan Zameen (Paperback)
Satinder Kaur Chohan
R415 Discovery Miles 4 150 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

In dusty, time-warped Indian villages, the last camels plough the land, last charkhas spin and last handlooms weave. The global 'outside' pushes in via Western culture, technology, huge land and agro-chemical contracts and the desire for a 'number 2' illegal route abroad. Zameen (Land) is set in the cotton fields of Punjab, India. Baba, an ageing Sikh cotton farmer, toils away in his fields, struggling against the vagaries of nature and the modern world. His dutiful daughter Chandni dreams of escaping her fate. Her wastrel brother Dhani dreams of 'Amrika'. When the moneylender Lal's son Suraj returns from the outside world, Chandni and Dhani reflect on faded lives and aspirations and reach for 'phoren' dreams. A final reckoning on Baba's land draws out truths, forcing the family to the brink of collapse, in a world changing fast and losing its values. Rooted in Punjabi farming and folk culture, ancestral land and soil, Zameen was written before mass Indian farmer protests against the increasing corporatisation of agriculture, rising farmer suicides and decimation of small farmers. Facing a climate change catastrophe, Zameen captures a world in transition, as nature, tradition and globalisation violently collide around small village lives - lives steeped in a history of toil, struggle - and resilience.

Lotus Beauty follows the intertwined lives of five multigenerational women, inviting us into Reita's salon where clients can wax lyrical about their day's tiny successes or have their struggles massaged, plucked or tweezed away. But with honest truths and sharp-witted barbs high among the treatments on offer, will the power of community be enough to raise the spirits of everyone who passes through the salon doors?

Til Death Do Us Part (Paperback): Til Death Do Us Part (Paperback)
R446 Discovery Miles 4 460 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

After fifteen years of marriage, Daniel and Sylvia find themselves drifting further apart with each passing day. Until one morning, they find themselves abruptly united by every parent's worst nightmare... The shoes have been polished, the vases are full and the phone is ringing off the hook, but there's one thing they're still missing...answers. Forced into a confrontation, years of resentment and things long left unsaid rise to the surface as they question the circumstances that brought them to this point, and what happens to your relationship when the only thing holding you together, threatens to tear you apart. A timely spotlight on love and loss, Til Death Do Us Part is the debut play of Safaa Benson-Effiom, and was a finalist in the 2020 Theatre503 International Playwriting Award and Soho Theatre's 2019 Tony Craze award. Originally presented as a Theatre503 and Darcy Dobson Productions co-production.

Zinnie Harris
R447 Discovery Miles 4 470 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Aeschylus' Oresteia opens with Agamemnon sacrificing his daughter to the gods; an act which sets in motion a bloody cycle of revenge and counter-revenge. When he in turn is killed at the hands of his wife Clytemnestra, their son Orestes takes up the mantle of avenging his father, continuing the bloodshed until peace is ultimately found in the rule of law. Zinnie Harris reimagines this ancient drama, using a contemporary sensibility to rework the stories, placing the women in the centre. Orestes' leading role is replaced by his sister Electra, who as a young child witnesses her father's murder and is compelled to take justice into her own hands until she too must flee the Furies.

Winner! The Women's Prize for Playwriting 2020 For a long time I didn't know how it'd work. Or what I'd be able to feel. People would ask me if I could have sex and I'd feign shock and act wildly offended whilst secretly wanting to grab them by the shoulders and be like "I don't know, Janet!" Juno was born with spina bifida and is now clumsily navigating her twenties amidst street healers, love, loneliness - and the feeling of being an unfinished project. Winner of The Women's Prize for Playwriting 2020, Amy Trigg's remarkable debut play Reasons You Should(n't) Love Me is a hilarious, heart-warming tale about how shit our wonderful lives can be.
