The Relatives!
We follow the journey of Friend, a lost being who cannot
understand their emotions, which has to their confusion
caused their body to fragment. They need help in finding
their way back to themselves. In order to learn the ways
in which "we" feel, they will go on a sensorial exploration
via the interaction of some new folks they meet along the
way, in order to explore how our minds, create neurological
connections through experience and memory.
The Relatives! A Radio Comedy Sketch Show
written by Siân Parry-Williams
Recently featured on BBC Radio Lancashire.
I have created my own little world of eccentric,
comical and relatable characters based on
my very own family members and real life
experiences with them. I share with you all the
funny and ridiculous things my relatives say
and do through the world of audio. They just
could not be made up. From a little, old, North
Welsh lady who has had enough of Bread of
Heaven, to an uptight Reverend who must keep
up appearances, and to a Mum who just tries
so hard to be 'hip n happening' but ultimately....
fails. Be transported to a world of giggles and
light heartedness that we all need right now.

Fruit Salad
One pub. Two girls. Too many nights to forget.
Fruity by name, fruity by nature!

Fruit Salad follows Cherry and Peaches from
their late teens until their late twenties. They
always meet up at the same pub but, as the
years go on, their lives start to splinter away
from each other. Can their bond pull them both
through even the trickiest situations?
Molly has lost not only her confidence but also herself along
the way. She can't let go of the past and she can't face the
present. In order to carry on she retreats further within until
she meets a stranger who re-ignites her lust for vitality,
pleasure, salsa dancing & apple pies. A dark farce - absurd
in places, poignant in others; this is a tale of love but also
a metaphor for the re-awakening of your deepest, darkest
passion.

Queer narratives, characters and confessions tie together
with the question we all ask: What makes me an avocado?
Am I ripe? Or rotting away, destined to be part of the never
ending food waste? There might be an answer. There
probably won't be. But, we'll definitely need your help.

The Empty Space (forsong, allusions and laughter as we bring the last British
merly Footlights House)
