The Lion in Winter
Power. Passion. Betrayal. Christmas with the Plantagenets is no holiday — it’s war.
A sibling rivalry, betrayal, and scheming in the dungeons — The Lion in Winter by James Goldman roars with wit and passion. Both comedic and dramatic, this modern classic plunges us into the turbulent world of the Plantagenets. At its centre is Eleanor of Aquitaine — the brilliant, imprisoned queen and richest woman in the world — who is released for Christmas only to spar with her formidable husband, King Henry II. As their sons claw for the crown and lovers complicate loyalties, the royal family turns yuletide cheer into a war of words, wills, and power. After all, as Eleanor wryly observes: “Every family has its ups and downs...”
The Tempest
Shipwrecks, sorcery, and second chances.
The Tempest whirls together magic, betrayal, revenge, and redemption on a mysterious island. Prospero, the rightful Duke of Milan, has lived in exile with his daughter Miranda after his own brother’s treachery. When he conjures a mighty storm to wreck his enemies on the shore, the stage is set for tangled plots, wild spirits, and schemes of power. With the ethereal Ariel carrying out Prospero’s designs and the rebellious Caliban plotting, every moment teeters between chaos and wonder. One of Shakespeare's most enchanting and thought-provoking plays.

The Watsons
When Jane Austen forgets the ending, the characters write it themselves...
What happens when the writer loses the plot? Emma Watson is 19, new in town, and newly cut off by her wealthy aunt. Sent back to the family home, she and her sisters must marry — and quickly. Otherwise, they face poverty, spinsterhood, or worse: a lifetime trapped with their boorish brother and his dreadful wife. So far, so Austen. But here’s the twist — Jane Austen never finished The Watsons. Who will write Emma’s happy ending now? Brimming with wit, mischief, and a touch of theatrical magic, this sparkling play peeks under the bonnet of Austen’s world and asks: What can characters do when their author abandons them?
Dead Ringer
When Power Demands a Performance, the Show Must Go On…
On the eve of a general election, the Prime Minister suddenly drops dead — or so it seems. Fearing electoral disaster without his charisma, two desperate cabinet members recruit an out-of-work actor to step into the PM’s shoes until the votes are cast. At first, it’s an amusing charade — a political performance played for laughs. But the role soon becomes dangerously real. The actor discovers that the Prime Minister wasn’t felled by a heart attack at all — he was poisoned. What begins as a playful deception spirals into a deadly game of murder, conspiracy, and ambition, laced with a wicked streak of dark comedy.
Dolly West’s Kitchen
In Dolly West’s Kitchen, in the coastal town of Buncrana during the Second World War, meals are served with equal helpings of laughter, longing, and sharp-tongued debate. As her family wrestles with the personal and political battles, American soldiers arrive in town and new opportunities — and new tensions — bubble to the surface. Alliances are tested, forbidden desires spark, and the clash between tradition and change threatens to boil over. Both intimate and epic, Frank McGuinness’s play blends humour, heartbreak, and humanity, creating a portrait of ordinary lives caught up in the extraordinary sweep of history.
