      Young people cannot avoid the consequences of climate change. In this urgent and lyrical play, they reckon with the generations who have come before them. They hold the audience to account for the broken world they have inherited, questioning the choices that have been made, and the ones that they will yet be forced to make. Is My Microphone On? is both a declaration of war and a declaration of love, a play in the form of a protest song, in which a chorus of young performers offer us an invitation to experience the world together anew.

      Botticelli in the Fire imagines the famed painter of The Birth of Venus, Sandro Botticelli, as an irrepressible seeker of love and pleasure caught between the powerful Medici family, the firebrand teachings of a zealot friar, and his young lover, Leonardo da Vinci. Entangled in sexual and political brinkmanship, Botticelli must choose between art and survival. In Sunday in Sodom, Lot's wife Edith tells of the Biblical destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, but set in the present day. American troops obliterate her surroundings with drone strikes and villagers turn against each other, but Edith's still focused on protecting her family, finally giving an answer as to why, when told to run and never look back, she looked back.

      When you wake up in a cold sweat at night and you think someone is watching you, well it's me. I'm watching you. And that cold sweat on your body, those are my tears. When the Shaun-Hastings sit down to dinner with the Dermots, closure is on the menu but recrimination becomes the main course. As their good intentions are stripped away, both couples' culpability in a tragedy is laid bare. At a dinner party where grief is the loudest guest, Late Company asks the question: How well can a parent ever know their child? Jordan Tannahill's Late Company received its European premiere at the Finborough Theatre, London, in April 2017 and transferred to the Trafalgar Studios, London, in August of the same year.
