The Bus Stop Duology

April 2025 ~ Riverside Studios

Never Underestimate the Importance of a Bus Stop centres on two men, the older Daniel and the younger Marcus, who both develop an infatuation with a Bus Stop. Over the course of the show, both men undergo what appears to be a mental breakdown, grieving at their misfortunes, but come together in a heart-warming, yet shocking, denouement.

 

Paul Weller Takes Tea at Two focuses on an ageing, troubled ‘Mod’ named Doc who intends to meet her hero, The Jam songwriter, Paul Weller, at a cafe across the street from a bus stop…but all is not what it seems, as she confronts her past with her younger sister, Lisa. An emotional yet humorous story with another shock ending.

They Weave with String that Suffocates

Date and Location TBA

Clotho. Lachesis. Atropos. The Spinner. The Allotter. The End.

The Fates observe, the Fates judge, but the Fates never act. Until now. When six blue strings inexplicably appear amongst their sea of red thread, the Fates must weave a new story if they ever want to find an answer.

 

Klytemnestra. Helen. Kassandra. Iphigenia. Khrysothemis. Elektra.

Six women connected through family, war, and a curse. Six women bound by the strings of Fate and wrenched by the whims of man. Six women faced with one question: Is my life my own? 

 

Amidst betrayal, murder, and revenge, these women must confront their destinies and make their final stand. As the Fates seek to understand the strange appearance of the blue strings, the women struggle against their shackles of grief, sorrow, and rage. Will the very string that connects them all strangle them in the end?
