In 1988, a Tory politician Robin Hesketh returns to his Cotswold home with his left-wing wife. What begins as light teasing soon escalates into a brutal conflict, shattering the calm of their 30-year marriage.

Hansard is an intimate drama about a troubled marriage set against the backdrop of Section 28, which banned the “promotion” of homosexuality. The play takes place in the Cotswolds, where Tory cabinet member Robin Hesketh and his disillusioned, left-wing wife Diana live. After Robin returns from a TV debate, Diana confronts him over his political views, criticising the Tories' stance on homosexuality. What starts as light teasing quickly turns into a brutal conflict, exploring the emotional disconnect between the characters and the clash of political ideologies.

Polloi Productions Introduces their Easter double bill- The Bacchae and The Birds! Two Greek plays come to the modern stage, a tragedy of Euripides and a comedy of Aristophanes.

The Bacchae follows the city of Thebes as their leader Pentheus resists the allure of the new religious cult of Dionysus. Disguising himself as a follower, the god slowly converts the house of Cadmus to his cult. Riddled with family rivalries and mysterious rites, the Bacchae just might make you lose your head.  

The Birds follows two fed up Athenians who wish to found their own city away from all the messy politics of Athens. They seek out the human-turned-bird king Tereus, and decide to create their own utopia in the sky called CloudCuckooLand. Hilarity ensues as they battle with gods and mortals alike to get their city up and running.
