    In spite of Eddy's humble beginnings, he manages to find happiness by solving the Sphinx's riddle and ending the plague of poverty that surrounds him. He gains wealth and loves his beautiful wife - but will the gypsy's prophecy come true? Does a fate worse than death await him? Steven Berkoff's exciting retelling of the ancient Greek tragedy 'Oedipus Rex' puts the hero in contemporary England, and explores the story from a whole new angle, emphasising the positive and redemptive power of love. 'Greek' premiered at the Half Moon Theatre, London, in February 1980.

    What on earth is happening to our planet? And who knows what to do? Certainties are few: every living thing is related to every other living thing; our actions have consequences; change is continual and inevitable. The National Theatre asked four of the country's most exciting writers to investigate. The team spent six months interviewing key individuals from the worlds of science, politics, business and philosophy to create a fast-paced and provocative new play. Greenland premiered at the National Theatre, London, in February 2011.

    First produced at the Croydon Warehouse Theatre in 1983, 'Groping for Words' is a warm comedy about an adult literacy evening class run by a middle-aged and well-meaning woman who knows that tact and respect are required. Unfortunately the only free room is the crèche. For her students, even admitting which class they want to attend is agonising, let alone being confronted with the written word. Townsend records their embarrassment and life-long difficulty with sensitivity and humour, as well as inflecting the play with an indignant condemnation of the society which has abandoned the illiterate.

    First performed at Liverpool's Everyman Theatre in 1998, 'Guiding Star' is a funny and powerfully authentic portrait of a Liverpudlian family. At its centre is Terry and his unapproachable silence; he and his sons were Laurence and Liam were at the Hillsborough disaster. All three survived, but 9 years later he is still struggling to cope with what he saw. His wife can't bear how remote he has become, and their marriage is suffering. Next door, Marni and her husband have a son in hospital with cystic fibrosis. For some, life goes on: the quiet tragedy is lifted by the comic sparring between Laurence and his Ricki Lake-loving girlfriend. Terry's younger son Liam is also looking for a relationship, though his dad might not be pleased about where he's looking.

    An early Brenton play, written in 1969 for the Brighton Combination, 'Gum and Goo' was the central part of a triple bill (with 'Heads' and 'The Education of Skinny Spew') It features two boys transformed into fantasy gremlins by an autistic girl. The girl is pushed into a hole and is found 'not dead - worse, she's silent'. Written to be performed with no set, the play requires bold physicalisation as there is nothing but the actors' bodies to tell the audience who the characters are.

    Due to the survival of three early, distinct versions of the text of Hamlet, the process of editing 'Hamlet' has required its editors to consider which of the texts - known as Quarto 1 (Q1), Quarto 2 (Q2), or Folio (F) - is truly 'authoritative'. For the Arden Third Series edition of Hamlet, editors Ann Thompson and Neil Taylor chose to reject the traditions of elevating one text above the others or creating a composite text from all three versions. Q1, printed in 1603, is often known as the 'bad' quarto due to its significant differences from both the Q2 and F texts.

The Folio text of 1623 contains a number of stage directions and lines of dialogue not seen in the other texts.

    First performed at the Lyric Hammersmith Studio in London in 1998, 'Handbag' is an angry, satirical, penetrating play about parenthood, which collides a reimagining of events from Wilde's 'The Importance of Being Earnest' with the life of a newborn baby in the nineties, the child of a lesbian couple and a gay couple, whose familial fantasy about the advantages for a child of having four rather than two parents is shattered by fear and infidelity.

    A sparkling, hilarious and technically brilliant short comedy, 'Hands Across the Sea' is set at a cocktail party in a smart London flat where the telephone is always ringing and there are always three conversations happening at once. The earnest enquiries, enthusiastic reminiscences and society anecdotes scream along at dazzling pace, impeded not a jot by the hosts having no idea who exactly their guests are. 'Hands Across the Sea' is a short play from the 'Tonight at 8.30' sequence, which was first produced at the Phoenix Theatre in London in 1936.

    Does light come in waves or particles? Experiment will show either: the experimenter can choose. 'A double agent is like a trick of the light,' Kerner the physicist tells Blair the spycatcher. 'You get what you interrogate for.' Dual natures, of light and of people, are the theme of Tom Stoppard's espionage thriller. Kerner's secret research is being leaked to Moscow. Is Ridley the double? Or is Kerner a triple? Hapgood is the person to find out, and maybe it will need two of her. 'Hapgood' premiered at the Aldwych Theatre, London, in March 1988.

    On his graduation day in 1978, John looks back over his teenage years with warmth, remembering the joys, tensions and sorrows of family life in West Yorkshire. John, now older and educated, finds himself alienated from his working-class family who cannot understand his theatrical aspirations. 'Happy Families', first produced in 1991, is an affectionate look at a ordinary family struggling with change.

    It is a few days until Christmas and Harry is waiting for someone to be in touch, for an old lover to have a drink with him, for a friend to show up. But as the big day comes, he falls into lonely and isolated despair. A dark and searing portrait of one man's solitude and its repercussions, 'Harry's Christmas' examines society's hypocrisy at the time of year when emotional pressure is at its highest. It premiered at the Donmar Warehouse, London, in December 1985.

    Julia has been dead nearly 15 years, a brilliant musician with her whole life ahead of her. Why did she have to die? Was it an accident? Suicide? Or something altogether more sinister? Her father Joe is determined to discover the truth about his daughter's death. Obsessed, he will stop at nothing - even if it means trying to reach Julia herself. 'Haunting Julia' was first produced at the Stephen Joseph Theatre, Scarborough, in 1994.

    A woman sitting alone hears a constant knocking at the door, but no one is there. Her husband returns and tells her of an extraordinary meeting with an old woman found roaming in a ruined part of the city. Then a stranger comes to the door, like a visitor from an earlier, lost world. What follows is tragic and absurdly funny until both seem to melt into a strange hallucinatory vision of the future. 'Have I None' was first presented in November 2000 at Castle Vale Artsite, Birmingham.

    'Hay Fever', first performed in 1925, tells the story of a busy weekend at a country house, where each member of the Bliss family has invited a guest to stay, without informing anyone else. All four guests are forced into close quarters with the four members of the host family, each one more eccentric than the last. Parlour games turn to rancour; romantic alliances split and reform with flippant ease. As Saturday evening climaxes into a clamour of melodrama, each of the invited guests begin to rue ever accepting an invitation from the inimitable Blisses.

    It is Christmas and that means, at Penwell Special Hospital - or the 'Head-rot Hotel', a psychiatric prison for women - it is time for the patients to put on their best clothes for the Christmas disco. 'Head-Rot Holiday' follows the stories of three women - Dee, Ruth and Claudia - who have each been imprisoned for various crimes, for which their punishment is to be 'treatment'. It was first performed by Clean Break, a theatre company that provides theatre in education to women in prison, at Battersea Arts Centre in 1992.

    As 'Heaven's Blessings' opens, Tobit has just finished digging a grave in the middle of the night. It is illegal to bury Jewish corpses in the city of Nineveh, and so he must bury them in secret, in the meantime concealing bodies in the wardrobe until he can get round to them. Things go from bad to worse when bird droppings fall into his eyes and blind him, but fortunately the angel Raphael turns up to make sure that events follow the correct Biblical course. From an apocryphal book of the Bible, Peter Barnes extracts a charming epic comedy of Tobit, his wife, their schlemiel of a son and a cantankerous guardian angel, who together set out to reclaim an outstanding IOU, overcoming many dangers which test their faith to breaking point.

    While the great Greek hero Herakles was in the underworld completing his divinely ordained labours, above ground, a rival king, Lykos, was busy plotting to murder Herakles' living mortal family. Instead, Herakles' returns just in time to kill Lykos. This is a short-lived redemption, however; after the murder of Lykos, Herakles' descends into madness and murders his own offspring, a madness initiated by an angry Hera, the goddess protector of Lykos. Only the appeal of the legendary king of Athens, Theseus, can bring Herakles back to sanity again, a sanity he reaches only to be realise his actions and be faced with a lifetime of heartbreak and an empty future ahead of him.

    After Herakles' ascension from earth to Olympos, his mortal rival King Eurystheus of Argos (who had devised his Labours) was afraid that Herakles' sons might grow up to contest the throne. He harried them from town to town across Greece, demanding that they be returned to Argos on pain of invasion. The play takes place after the children, led by Herakles' aged mother Alkmene and his equally decrepit nephew and former companion Iolaos, take refuge in Marathon, a town in Attika not far from Athens. The Argives then declare war on Marathon and the Athenians, a war whose victory is underwritten for the Athenians by the decision of Herakles' daughter Makaria, to allow herself to be sacrificed to the gods. The subsequent defeat of the Argives, and the punishment of Eurystheus, defines the second half of the play, which was first produced some time between 430 and 427 BC.

    Cath and Phil walked down the street, saw a 'To Let' board, and rented the top floor of Pat's house, the studio that used to be the boys' room, where she put Eric when he had his cough, in that chair just there behind the curtain. Up alone in their little attic, their relationship is put to the test. Which side of the flat is Cath's? Does Phil own the alcove? Will they ever throw out Theodore, the abandoned toy dog? First produced at the Donmar Warehouse, London, in 1993, 'Here' is a funny, accurate look at a young couple struggling to make joint decisions as they feel their individuality slipping away.
