Precinct

Precinct is a semi-absurdist play about 2 people trying to cope with each others obsessive behaviours and their own.

Mark is obsessed with the idea of having a baby to call his own, because of the memories he has of his still-born sister whom he remembers as being buried “in a grave 4 feet wide, 6 feet deep”.

Ellen is incessantly worried that a nuclear holocaust will soon happen, and wipe out all forms of life on earth.

Their heightened fear of apocalypse leads them to question their identity, and hence their purpose of existence…

Julie

Julie is a play about a typical modern teenager trying to cope with the angst and pangs of her life. She slowly withdraws into herself, perhaps waiting for someone to lend her a support. However, as she soon finds out the answer to all her problems can only be found from deep within herself, as she confronts her deepest fears.
