Fraser Grace's new play examines the impact of PTSD on a soldier returning home after witnessing the horrors of the aftermath of the Russian Revolution
Written by Fraser Grace (Breakfast with Mugabe, RSC) and based on a short story by censored writer Andrey Platonov, Bliss tells the tragic yet heart-warming tale of a young couple trying to build a life against the odds in the aftermath of civil war.
Inspired by a true story, The Straw Chair is a modern Scottish classic, exploring liberty, marriage, madness and incarceration, and female empowerment, against the backdrop of the lost way of life of the Western Isles.
With its ability to use theater to explore timely topics, Black Theatre Troupe brings the riveting play BREAKFAST WITH MUGABE October 25- November 10 to the Helen K.

Combining intimate stories, comic dialogues, and - when words feel like a cage - dance, Rejoicing At Her Wondrous Vulva The Young Woman Applauded Herself is a celebratory exploration of female sexuality, taking audiences on a journey of self-discovery through pleasure, shame, pride, fury and jubilation. Male gaze may have influenced how we see ourselves and how we engage with sexuality, but what even IS the female gaze? Bella Heesom's personal journey through how she got to think and behave the way she did, and then turned around and questioned it all, is played out as a tug of war between brain and clitoris; the intellectual vs the sensual, in a celebration of what it means to be the proud owner of a vulva.
My World Has Exploded A Little Bit is an acclaimed new play telling a deeply personal story of love and loss by Ovalhouse's Associate Artist Bella Heesom and Olivier Award-winning director Donnacadh O'Briain.
