Sixteen by Rob Drummond - At 16, we are lawfully permitted to have sex. In this sinister piece, Sara Marshall, 15 years, 364 days, 23 hours and 15 minutes old, intends to take full advantage. She is waiting as her parents play awkward host to her boyfriend, 30-something Tony, before he climbs the 19 stairs to Sara's room and waits for the clock to chime. Rob Drummond adapted Peer Gynt for the Edinburgh Fringe and directed his own work Lifesaving at the New Writing New Worlds Festival. The Severed Head of Comrade Bukhari by Daljinder Singh - Comrade Bukhari must die. His crime is so dire that he cannot escape what fate has in store for him. The hottest night of the year, an alley way, a disused building and a jukebox with a mind of its own set the scene for a dark, chilling and extraordinary event. Daljinder Singh directed Fewer Emergencies for Ankur Productions and The Penal Colony for Tara Arts. She has previously worked with Tag Theatre Company, National Theatre of Scotland, Talawa Theatre Company, Contact Theatre and the West Yorkshire Playhouse.The Arches Award for Stage Directors - T1009152883The Arches Award for Stage Directors is completely unique in the UK and was created by the Arches to offer emergent directors the opportunity to stage a fully supported and professional production.
