The Taming of the Shrew
Directed by Mags Delaney-Moffatt
Baptista Minola has two daughters: the desirable but slightly dippy Bianca and the older and hot-tempered Katherina, who terrorises the household with her sharp tongue.
While Bianca has a number of would-be suitors, Baptista has decreed she can’t be married until Katherina is wed. Something Katherina has vowed never to do!

Presented by an all-female-identifying cast, this fresh take on The Taming of the Shrew brings a bold new energy to the classic comedy, flipping the script on traditional gender roles, offering a hilarious and unexpected twist on the power struggles and romantic entanglements that drive the story.

There are disguises, false identities, schemes and dreams but in the end love conquers all!

Richard III
Directed by Cath Boniface
Richard III follows the ruthless rise of Richard, Duke of Gloucester, as he manipulates and murders his way to the English throne. Set after the Wars of the Roses, Richard eliminates rivals, even within his own family, to claim power. His reign of terror sparks rebellion, leading to his defeat by Henry Tudor at Bosworth Field, revealing the devastating cost of power at any price.

In this adaptation, Richard III is reimagined as a gritty family gang drama set in the late 1940s, bringing Shakespeare’s tale of ambition and betrayal into the seedy, dangerous world of post-war London’s gang culture.
