The Guardian HOUND by MARIA OSHODI Three blind people at a guide-dog training centre forced to confront the media. '..a witty biting piece out to give the sighted a salutary eye-opener.' The Independent SOFT VENGEANCE by APRIL DE ANGELIS Adapted from Albie Sachs' book, a gripping account of his struggle to rebuild his life following a car bomb. 'Courageous, horrifying, sad and funny - ' The Times FITTINGS: THE LAST FREAKSHOW by MIKE KENNY Ringmaster Rusty Gusty runs the last freak show on the planet with a troupe of freaks and misfits. '...an hilarious, ironic, hard-hitting piece of theatre.' The Scotsman INTO THE MYSTIC by PETER WOLF this latter-day passion play...making brilliant use of large scale computer imagery and perform-ances of terrifying power - not for the squeamish.A" What's On. PEELING by KAITE O'REILLY Explores an entirely new narrative of theatre, weaving audio description and sign language into these darkly comic and devastating stories.
