Yes, Prime Minister

by Antony Jay & Jonathan Lynn

​

The UK is in crisis: debt is spiralling, unemployment is on the rise and the fragile coalition cabinet, led by Prime Minister Jim Hacker, is at breaking point. But salvation may exist in the form of a complex pipeline deal with the oil-rich country of Kumranistan that would entitle the government to a multi-trillion pound loan. When the Kumranistan Foreign Secretary makes a shocking request of Jim's Private Secretary Bernard Woolley, moral considerations collide with the economic future of the nation. But how will Jim and his team: Bernard, Cabinet Secretary Sir Humphrey Appleby, and Special Adviser Claire Sutton, reconcile the two? Political machinations, media manipulation and an appeal for divine intervention ensue.

Covid-19 permitting! Keep watching this space!

 

Don't You Want Me?

by Andy Bennison

​

In the 1980s, the Craven Street Community Centre Discos were legendary. With the building due for demolition there is one last chance for old friends to meet again after nearly forty years. It’s a night for dancing, drinking, reminiscing and the re-opening of old wounds. 

 

It’s the end of an era, but for some, a beginning.
