Electricity - Four young people on the cusp of adulthood are hurtling towards self-destruction. When tragedy strikes one morning outside Pimlico station, it sets off a chain reaction forcing them to reassess their lives. Miriam Battye's breakneck drama explores the contradictions and chemical reactions within us all, and asks whether we really have control over what we feel. My Beautiful City - When you can't live in the present, where do you turn? In Samuel Evans' touching new play, an abandoned laundrette becomes the gateway to a beautiful city. For the eight broken souls who are transported there, it's the beginning of a powerful discovery.
