The Dishwasher - A worker in a nameless, faceless, basement kitchen begins his work as a dishwasher and relishes informing us of every fine detail of his job. A disturbing, nightmare-ish study of the uneducated, unqualified and oppressed workers of the world finding their voice. . . . Confessions Of A Rock 'n' Roll Star - The world has rock n roll stars, for that we must be thankful. Sadly, we're not all going to get to be one. Nonetheless, millions of us can still pose in front of our mirrors with tennis racquets and sweeping brushes slung between our legs like fake guitars and dream and that's better than nothing. Featuring classic rock tracks, wallow indulgently in a one-man fantasy guitar solo as homage to a wasted youth. . . . Gauguin's Ghost - An informal study of the life of the artist Paul Gauguin. A well-researched piece, it explores the idea that Gauguin, on his deathbed, sold his soul to a witch doctor in exchange for immortality in spirit form. We meet those who shaped his art and hear tell of how he pursued his own singular vision at all costs. . . . Tommy Greaves - Is an alternative take on 'Billy Elliot'. Older than Billy, Tommy tells his own, maturer story of the grittier realities of what it meant to be young and unemployed during the Miner's Strike of 1984. This work was given a public reading in English in Paris in February 2015. . . . Unspoken - Written in 2015 as 'Two Gendarmes' and then updated in 2019 as 'Unspoken', it is a story of an older, more seasoned French policeman instructing a younger female recruit to the obvious and the not-so-obvious elements of the job. first performed in French May 2023 in Nantes, France.

Notă biografică

On 'X': "Six years in the making, X is a powerful piece of promenade theatre that playwright Tony Stowers describes as his "labour of love"; it's a passion that's evident throughout the play. A modern-day tale of love, loss, sex and identity, the cast consist of just two actors: the equally impressive Terry Betts and David Hannah, who portray four well-crafted characters you genuinely care about. The opening scene - in which straight friends Dave and Mark discuss their dubious sex lives and opinions on homosexuality, while intermittently shouting lewd comments to passing women - could have been a cliché-ridden disaster. Instead, the dialogue is painfully accurate, as it remains throughout. Despite very little verbal interaction, the crucial scene, in which Dave allows himself to be seduced by the charismatic Stewart during a game of chess, is passionate and makes for slightly uncomfortable viewing, while the close of the play, which sees live-in lovers John and Stewart part ways, is genuinely moving. Staging X at The End (one of Newcastle's best-known gay bars) will undoubtedly bring theatre to audiences who may not otherwise access it. Unfortunately, however, it's also unlikely to attract the audience it so widely deserves.-Amy Rudd, The Tyne & Wear Metro Magazine, March 2006.
