Production:: The Judgement of Mr Jenkins/Vegetable/Canaveral's Lurch (T0932912210)

The Judgement of Mr Jenkins - Mr Jenkins wakes from a disturbed sleep to find a smartly dressed stranger in his living room. The stranger is as reluctant to give answers as he is to leave... This play is a dark comedy which explores how our everyday choices and seemingly irrelevant actions can have serious consequences. Recommended for ages 15 and over. Vegetable - Imagine the nightmare scenario of waking up one morning to discover you are trapped inside your own body - unable to move or speak. This is what happens to Estelle, attacked in her home and left for dead two months earlier. How can she communicate to her doctors and family that she is not a vegetable? Who attacked her? And why? Recommended for ages 15 and over. Canaveral's Lurch - Five years after his career is brought crashing down in flames, disgraced television star Ross Canaveral takes revenge on the journalist who ruined him. Casting him centre-stage in a media-circus of his own twisted devising, Canaveral forces him to confront the question: What is the real cost of a headline? Recommended for ages 18 and over.
