Henna Night

By Amy Rosenthal

Directed by Jess Edelstein
Judith leaves a frantic voicemail on her ex's machine, hinting at pregnancy and threatening to commit suicide (or maybe just dye her hair.) But it isn't Judith's ex-boyfriend who comes rushing to the rescue. It's Ros, the other woman. Amy Rosenthal's Henna Night is a witty and poignant exploration of love, that's as entertaining as it is wickedly perceptive.

Sparagmos

Directed by David Bisaha

Choreography by Ariel Nereson

Rich choreography and a lyrical ear come together to create this original interpretation of A VERY OLD story. Based on Ian Johnston's translation of Euripides' The Bacchae, Sparagmos will leave you awed at the power of visual theatre.
