Adapted from the book by Janet and Allan Ahlberg,
"Each Peach Pear Plum" is a game of 'I spy' for little ones and their families.
"Tom Thumb's in the cupboard, Mother Hubbard's on the stairs, Where are the Three Bears?"
The setting is a delightful green meadow with a river running through it.
With songs and music the production brings to life a variety of nursery rhyme characters played by a wide range of puppets, all on their way to Mother Hubbard's for some Plum Pie.
"an enchantingly detailed show, that draws many excitable oohs and aahs", The Scotsman

Set to become the US�s first offshore windfarm, strange alliances have formed
for and against the project in NIMBY central, Martha�s Vineyard, New York.

CLICK HERE FOR GREAT REVIEW FROM THE HERALD

ANOTHER GREAT REVIEW FROM THE GUARDIAN

AND THE SCOTSMAN REVIEW TOO


On March 16, 2003, Rachel Corrie, a 23-year-old American, was killed by an Israeli military bulldozer in the Gaza Strip
as she was trying to prevent the demolition of Palestinian homes.
My Name Is Rachel Corrie is a one-woman play composed from Rachel's own journals, letters and emails
 - creating a portrait of a messy, skinny, articulate, Salvador Dali-loving chain smoker,
who left her home in Olympia, Washington, �to support non-violent resistance to Israel�s military occupation.�

Rachel�s writings were edited by British actor Alan Rickman and Guardian editor Katharine Viner.
This multi-award winning show is a powerfully honest insight into one of the most complicated international
political conflicts that continues to resonate across the world.

�Vivid� Guardian****
�Illuminating� Scotsman****
�Tremendous� The Herald****
�Poignant� The List****
�A theatrical tour de force based on reality, resulting in a production that feels far more truthful
 than any of the news broadcasts covering the events around the story� Onstage Scotland

(Suitable for age 14+)
