Programme Notes
We are pleased to present two One Act Plays
by contempory authors for your enjoyment
Escaped Alone by Caryl Churchill
Three old friends and a neighbour, backyard tea with environmental disaster, exploring themes of
politics, crisis, communication and female endurance. A summer of afternoons in
the back yard.
Tea and catastrophe!
The pleasant conversation is frequently interrupted, by the
neighbour, Mrs. Jarrett, who addresses the audience
with long monologues about an
apocalyptic world.
The play speaks to our fears about the
future of the planet,
as well as our personal anxieties, while also offering
some salvation in the strength of our community,
as friends, neighbours or
open-minded theatre goers.
Humour and pathos.

TWO by Jim Cartwright
A real time, one scene snapshot of life in a local
pub one weekend evening.
The action revolves around the landlord and landlady,
who run the pub, and different pairs of people who are customers.
It moves back
and forth, spotlighting the different relationships, coming back to the
landlord and landlady each time.
All the characters are portrayed by the two
actors on stage.
Thought provoking relationships.
