    Iphigenia in Splott
    • What is gonna happen, when we can't take it anymore? Stumbling down the street drunk at 11.30am Effie is the kind of girl you avoid making eye contact with. You think you know her, but maybe you don't know half of it. Effie's life is a mess of drink, drugs and drama every night, and a hangover worse than death the next day – till one night gives her the chance to be something more. Gary Owen's critically acclaimed and powerful monodrama inspired by the Greek myth opens at the Lyric after a smash-hit season at the Sherman Theatre in Wales and later the National Theatre, winning the Best New Play at the UK Theatre Awards 2015. This edition was published to coincide with the production at the Lyric Hammersmith, London, in September 2022.

      Iphigenia in Splott
    • "'You're trying to work out where the universe came from, sat in the caff, in the STAR... in Tremorfa?' A modern love story inspired by Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. Romeo is a single dad hanging on tight. Julie is fighting to follow her dream of studying at Cambridge. Two Welsh teens raised a few streets apart-- but from entirely different worlds-- crash into first love and are knocked off their feet. But at the crossroads to the rest of their lives, Julie's family fears the worst in a world of unequal opportunity." --

    • In Killology, players are rewarded for torturing victims, scoring points for "creativity".But Killology isn't sick. In fact it's marketed by its millionaire creator as a deeply moral experience. Because yes, you can live out your darkest fantasies, but you don't escape their consequences.Out on the streets, not everybody agrees with him."There is an instinctive revulsion against taking a human life. And that revulsion can be conquered."
