Callum and Pen are setting up for a gathering; a murder mystery ‘cassette-tape’ party between them and their close friends, where over the evening they will have to solve the murder of a 1930s family matriarch Elspeth Fitzgerald, using clues given to them by the tape. As the evening progresses time melts around the partygoers and the 1930s crash into the 1990s and into the 2020s, with each of the partygoers glitching between various characters past and present, it soon becomes very clear that this isn’t going to be a very normal party at all. This play explores questions around generational blame and personal responsibility.

On the way home from work George sees something he wishes he hadn’t. George just wants to live in a bubble, with the people he imagines, the ones he dreams about. But something, gnawing out from inside him, won’t let him.
Inhabiting the space between Alan Bennett’s Talking Heads and The Twilight Zone, George’s struggle is interspersed with the stories of the bizarre characters from his dreams: tales of ghostly dogs, nosy neighbours, and twenty-nine year olds who were born yesterday. You’ll laugh. You’ll question how the heck we live with
ourselves. But you’ll leave with a fire in your belly and hope in your heart.

Andrew Tucker for LeftLion Nottingham - “it takes skill to make a monologue about determinism feel like a sugar high, but that\'s how GNAW comes across”

Jayne Williams -“Gnaw is one of the best productions I’ve seen this year! It delivers everything from humour to heart prodding poignancy via a collection of superbly observed characters played to perfection by one person.”

Every town has that street, built at a different time, different style, different bricks. Here, that is Rhododendron Way. Whilst the rest of the town is old stone terraces, the houses of Rhododendron Way are modern detached red brick.

But now, red bricks have been appearing on the streets and pavements across town. Last week a brick on the road caused the mayor to crash her car, and now, fingers are pointing. An emergency meeting of the town council has been called to work out what to do.

Mayor Oakes, Lily, and Florian make up the town council. They become the various residents of Rhododendron Way, attempting to explain the wild wondrous reasons why each may be responsible for the mysterious bricks. Some of their explanations are mythical, supernatural, others ordinary. But as they discuss, it becomes clear they are less interested in finding who is responsible, and more interested in finding someone to blame and make the town pariah, all under the mantra of ‘for the good of the many’.

“I’m left with one feeling and one thought.
What’s wrong with me?”
