About the Plays
The Voyage of the Carcass
1899, somewhere in the Arctic — the remaining survivors of the shipwrecked Carcass are on their last thread of sanity after years stranded in the ice. Starving, paranoid, and haunted by the ghosts of their cannibalised crew, they must decide whether to wait for rescue or venture out into the endless, deadly expanse… If they don't kill each another first. This absurdly dark comedy takes us to the very ends of the earth in a slapstick battle between humanity and hubris.
Bobby and Amy
A sleepy Cotswold town in the the late nineties. For 13-year-old outsiders Bobby and Amy, it’s a world of sunshine, Take That and Tamagotchis. But as their friendship blossoms, devastating foot-and-mouth disease looms. And when the cows begin to burn and families to fracture, the town’s very way-of-life is threatened. In the face of such catastrophe, the young pair emerge as unlikely champions. This dark and tender comedy explores friendship and coming-of-age, heartache, and the ultimate importance of shared community.
