    'Human Cannon' is a narrative of class struggle, set in a small village consumed by the fight against fascism in Spain, a play which swells from resentment against the privileged landowners to blazing revolution. At the centre are Agustina and her family, who are seen in the first scene preparing to bury her nameless child, while her husband explains the violent origins of capitalism. When the war takes over the village and the play, Agustina begins by learning to fire her enemies' cannon, and ends by herself becoming - through the strength of human will - the most effective weapon in the armoury of revolution. 'Human Cannon' is a tremendous manifesto of resistance and an unflinching interpretation of the Spanish Civil War.

    'In the Company of Men' makes a vivid and coruscating attack on the values encapsulated by boardroom power games, as power skirmishes turn to violence. The play opens with Leonard demanding a position on the board of his adoptive father's arms manufacturing company. His ageing father is exhausted, as the company has just narrowly avoided being taken over by a rival. When his father refuses him the position, Leonard begins to go behind his father's back in order to acquire another company and usurp power by more aggressive means. 'In the Company of Men' was first produced in Britain in 1996 in the Pit Theatre, London.

    'Jackets' sets out a resonant and poetic counterpoint between two scenes of martyrdom, a powerful dyadic commentary on the politics of sacrifice, with Part One set in eighteenth-century Japan and Part Two in modern Europe. The play produces detailed and human portraits, the force of its argument emerging from their vividly drawn responses and the potent interaction between its two parts. Derived from 'The Village School' scene of Sugawaraby Takeda Zumo, 'Jackets' premiered in 1989 at Lancaster University.

    'The Bundle' explores the origins and mechanisms of moral concepts through cruel ethical dilemmas. The play begins with the discovery of an abandoned child on a riverbank. Reluctantly the ferryman adopts the child though he can barely afford to feed another person. The play first describes the boy's upbringing within the social values of his community, before turning to revolution to dissect and rework accepted attitudes and ideologies. 'The Bundle' weaves together lives beset with social injustices and torn by agonizing choices. It was first performed in 1978 at the Warehouse Theatre, London.
