Muted all began with Tim Prottey-Jones coming to Tori Allen-Martin with an album of great songs and some rough ideas about an elective mute boy. Tori then asked me to write the book for it, as she'd seen a few of my plays and thought I'd be a good fit. This was a gift for me: in another part of my life I work as a coach, often with people with mental health problems or learning difficulties, and I'm particularly interested in how personal trauma affects the mind - especially in young people.

Family gatherings and occasions are frequently tarnished by disagreements; none more so than at weddings, christenings and funerals when extended families are often brought together. Joshua Harmon's play Bad Jews takes place following a family funeral and an heirloom belonging to the deceased is being fought over. This dark situational comedy is set in a plush studio apartment in Manhattan where cousins are staying overnight amidst the Jewish commemorations following their Grandfather's passing.

Due to popular demand, Theatre Royal Bath Productions, Kenny Wax and Theatre Royal Haymarket Productions are delighted to announce the return of Joshua Harmon's BAD JEWS to the West End, at London's Theatre Royal Haymarket. The critically-acclaimed production will run from 8th February until 19th March 2016, following sell out runs at Ustinov Studio, Bath, St James Theatre and The Arts Theatre, London.
