Don’t. Make. Tea.

Don't. Make. Tea. is a dark comedy by award-winning playwright Rob Drummond.

Photo from birds eye perspective. The black floor is scattered with white dusty lumps varying in size from very small to about the size of a tennis ball. A low side light catches the detritus on the floor, casting long shadows across the plane. It looks like the surface of the moon. A figure off to the right of the photo, is dressed in neutral white leggings and a light brown cardigan. They have rocked up onto their shoulders, their bum in the air and their knees framing their face, which stares neutrally up into space. Their left arm stretches out into the dappled floor.

Orbits

Orbits is a film about how we feel and what we experience when we lose something we have been in orbit or relationship with. How does this change affect our experience of ourselves?

The woman is standing on the left behind the musical equipment that is covered in a blue sheet. She is smiling. On the right, the man in the wheelchair is holding a microphone with his mouth wide open and his head thrown back. In the middle of them, there is a screen on wheels with two people on it against a white background. One of these people appears to be holding a white toy pony.

Super Special Disability Roadshow

The Super Special Disability Roadshow is on a global tour trying to find out why disability equality is still lightyears away.

Jack kneels on the ground, leaning with his elbows on a small wooden stool. Next to him, the Drath Tater sits atop an overhead projector, which is projecting an image of Bec as a toddler sitting in a highchair, with pigtails. Jack's chin rests in his right hand as he smiles confidently away from the camera.

One of Two

Trapped in the bathroom with an evil tattie, Jack wrestles with the reality of living alone. Jack Hunter’s inspiring* debut comedy is full of heart and a half empty bag of Weetos.

Robert, a white middle aged man, lies back in bed facing the camera. He has the white bed covers pulled up over his nipples and his hands back behind his head. He looks smoulderingly at the camera.

Come To Bed With Me

Bedrooms are our private spaces that only certain people are allowed to see and fewer still are permitted to occupy. Come to Bed With Me is an invitation to share in moments that are new and real - to exchange with people who might not look or move as you do.

An illustration of an old wooden radio, with three speech bubbles rising from the speaker. In each speah bubble is an emoji: the aubergine; the curly poo with a shocked face; a love heart with sparkles.

Something to Say

During the 2020 lockdown, we ran a development project in partnership with Theatre Gu Leor, called Something to Say | Rudeigin ri Ràdh, to amplify the voices of people seldom heard in radio drama. That project was divided into two strands: Writer Development and Writer Commissions.

Four male performers clustered on a slightly smokey looking stage. Two of them are in wheelchairs, the other two are standing. Their ages appear to range from young to middle aged and they are dressed in various coloured shirts and jeans. They all appear to be reaching out to grab a man in a yellow T shirt who is standing in the middle of them all.

Purposeless Movements

When they were born the doctors called it Purposeless Movements – for them it’s just how they get around Purposeless Movements is a visually […]

A room with black walls and a black and white checkered floor, there are zebra print blinds over the windows and stretches of brightly coloured tape everywhere. On the left hand side of the wall the phrase 'The fucking end' is spelt out in tape. In the centre there is a blotchy pink sofa. Two young men, both in: sneakers, skinny jeans and t shirts, stand on either arm of the sofa. They are reaching out and grabbing onto each others arms.

____ is where the heart is

'_____ is where the heart is' is a tale of displacement and identity that weaves stories from local audiences into its narrative to create a play that resonates with each community it visits.

Five actors line up behind each other centre stage. They have their arms outstretched and the faces that we can see have their mouths open wide as if they are singing.

My Left/Right Foot

The local am-dram society is under pressure to comply with the equalities agenda. They come up with a cunning plan to create a gripping show starring ‘the disabled’. What could be better than the Oscar-winning ‘My Left Foot’? The only snag is they’re having real trouble finding any disabled actors – but that never stopped Daniel Day-Lewis!

A group of people gather and lean in to listen to a woman talk. She appears to be in her early 30s and has dark hair. She has one of her arms leant on a man's shoulder, the other four people appear to be listening intently . They are all in modern dress, one of the men appears to be holding a large book and one of the women is holding drum sticks.

The Tin Soldier

Hans Christian Andersen's first ever children's story is about two people who find each other in a rough tough world – although, like winter, nothing lasts forever.

A shirtless man with a painted face wearing nipple tassles and a hat sits at the front of the stage and scowls. He is white and sat in a wheelchair .There are two more actors in drag makeup placed behind him..

Blanche & Butch

Blanche & Butch tells the witty and poignant story of the lives, loves and losses of the three disabled men who used to be the sensational Heelz on Wheels. There’s not much sensation now...
