Silas is from a family of shepherds and has to do right by his mum and
granddad as he reluctantly takes on the responsibility of watching
their sheep up on the mountain over the winter. But he’s bored, lonely
and missing out on the fun of the annual knitting competition in town,
so he cries - “Wolf!” Written by playwright Mike Kenny and inspired
by Aesop’s famous fable, this is a beautiful wintery tale about a boy
who learns that “nobody believes a liar, even when they’re telling
the truth.” A gifted ensemble of actor musicians play instruments
and sing live as they embody all the delightful characters, including
hilarious sheep and perhaps a scary wolf or two… All set in a village
of knitters with fingers flicking, needles clicking and where every
new jumper tells a tale! Ultimately, Silas finds a place for himself (and
his imagination) in his warm woolly community.

Christopher Huggins’ The List is an enlightening, emotive work that
shines a light on the horrific realities of the Holocaust through the story
of one fictional family in Krakow, Poland circa 1941. Four dancers are
seated around the dinner table, when a knock at an imaginary door,
followed by the delivery of a letter, sends the father of the family into
a tortured frenzy. As if fighting with an imaginary foe, the father reels
with pain. Resignation overtakes each family member as news of their
deportation sinks in. The story then traces the family’s journey to a
concentration camp, where Huggins paints a picture of impending peril,
followed by a final heartrending scene within the gas chambers.
