Play :: Hope In Boxes sees two Grandchildren sorting through their Nan's letters and photos. The story unfolds as the audience is transported back to life during the Second World War: social pressures spanning generations are exposed, and secrets of hidden sexuality are revealed. A Light In Every Window catapults the audience into a fast and contemporary drama. The complex relationships of friends and lovers are brought into focus following a tragic event. This emotionally charged play sees friends reflect on their carefree Manchester party days and their love lives today. The impact of infidelity and the subtlety of sweet revenge make this a thought-provoking new play.
