    'Bulrusher', set in 1955, is a coming-of-age narrative in which the title character, abandoned as a baby and taken in by strangers, navigates a world where she finds herself increasingly outside the mainstream of Boonville, California, the small country town where she was raised. When a black visitor from Alabama arrives in the town, Bulrusher begins to confront the norms and attitudes that she and those in her town take for granted. 'Bulrusher' was premiered in New York in March 2006.

    First staged at the Almeida Theatre in 2011, 'Butterfly Kiss' unfolds the story of Lily Ross's life and crime through oblique, shifting and mesmeric scenes, her interlaced memories revealing the psychosexual tangle of her childhood and the events that led up to her trial. From her jail cell Lily summons up her past, a vivid collage of cross-fades and flashbacks cumulatively revealing aspects of her experience. Her relationships are spikily chronicled in hard-edged scenes, all leading in an impossible multiplicity of ways to the terrible truth of what she has done to her mother.

    'Bye bye Columbus', a television play first broadcast by the BBC in 1992, is a wry and mocking portrait of a man who sailed halfway across the world for a hint of gold. Peter Barnes mockingly dramatises the distinctly unheroic expedition of Christopher Columbus, which changed the face of the globe, though not entirely in the way he was expecting.

    Set in the 17th century, 'Byrthrite' tells the story of a group of women who, using a variety of tactics and paths, fight back against the growing, male-dominated obsession with herbal medicine, so-called 'witchcraft', and the purging of innocent women. Daniels repeatedly shows the connection between the medical profession and the subjugation of women: as timely an observation in the era of IVF and the fight for abortion rights as it was in 17th century Britain, suggesting that solidarity amongst women in this matter can and should transcend all other dichotomies of politics, religion and wealth. 'Byrthrite' was first produced in the Royal Court Theatre Upstairs, London, in 1986.

    A woman's body is found in a quarry, eight years to the day since her son died in the same place. Three women, strangers to each other, are bound by these events through one man. They have to find a way to break free from 'the fallen' and stand up for themselves. Winner of the 1990 Independent Theatre Award, 'Can't Stand up for Falling Down' was first performed at that year's Edinburgh Fringe Festival, before transferring to the Hampstead Theatre London.

    Set in Cardiff's east side, Peter Gill's play offers a vivid portrait of a community the Tories thought they had got rid of, and New Labour would prefer to forget. 'Cardiff East' raises essential questions: What is family value? What does it feel like to be an immigrant in your own country? And most importantly, why don't the Welsh reach for the Armalite? Uncompromising and desperately real, with an undercurrent of ironic humour, Cardiff East builds towards an inexorable climax, which combines hope and tragedy in equal parts. 'Cardiff East' premiered at the National Theatre, London, in February 1997.

    A dramatic and poetic meditation on the history and present plight of Derry.

    'Category B' is a sharp and hard-hitting play about the brutal power structures of prison life. It is set in a Category B prison, where all offenders are placed after they are first convicted: it is tough, and dangerous, and compelling. Inside C Wing, Thames Gate Prison, it's the screws that have the keys, but all too often it's the prisoners that have the power. Williams's play was first performed as part of the 'Not Black and White' season at the Tricycle Theatre, London, in 2009.

Although advertised as having 'Music by Noël Coward and others', it in fact had only five Coward numbers and only one of them could be considered as a semi-sketch.

    In the wake of the publication of his controversial book on adolescent sexuality, Dick and his wife, Liz, have retreated with their family to the French countryside. Joined by their friends Phil and Diana for a child-free weekend, they enjoy the sunshine and the cheap wine until certain unsavoury revelations come to light. At the worst moment possible, two reporters appear to interview Dick, causing great worry among the couples that all their secrets will be aired in the press. Nichols drew inspiration for 'Chez Nous' from time spent at his own family's home in France. This darkly comedic, and sometimes deeply shocking play was first produced in London in 1976.

    This landmark state-of-the-nation play is a panoramic drama portraying the age-old battle between realism and idealism. The kettle boils in 1936 as the fascists are marching. Tea is brewed in 1946, with disillusion in the air at the end of the war. In 1956, as rumours spread of Hungarian revolution, the cup is empty. Sarah Khan, an East End Jewish mother, is a feisty political fighter and a staunch communist. Battling against the State and her shirking husband, she desperately tries to keep her family together. Chicken Soup with Barley captures the collapse of an ideology alongside the disintegration of a family. The play, the first in a trilogy with 'Roots' and 'I'm Talking about Jerusalem', was first performed at the Belgrade Theatre, Coventry in 1958.

    An early work of Howard Brenton, first produced in 1969, 'Christie in Love' is based on the true events surrounding the interrogation and execution of serial killer John Reginald Christie. Brenton's disturbing writing portrays a stupidly aggressive police force dealing with a pathetically tormented man. Contrasting the everyday, ordinary demeanour of the killer with the disgusting, extra-ordinary atrocities he committed, Brenton asks what makes any of us different from that man and what is stopping us from becoming like him?

    It is Christmas at the A and E of a Hull hospital; as Keith the security guard stays out of doors to keep an eye on the patients, their families, and the staff, we see an array of people come and go: from drugged-up Stevo to fagged-out Len, each with their own little mini-dramas to be seen. But Kath, the A and E nurse who this time last year lost her husband, is faced with the biggest drama of all, when she unexpectedly receives two tickets for a city-break to Prague. 'Christmas Crackers' was first performed in December 2006 at Spring Street Theatre, Hull.

    First produced in 2005 at London's National Theatre, 'Citizenship' is a bittersweet one-act comedy about growing up, following a boy's frank and messy search to discover his sexual identity. Tom dreams of being kissed, but he's not sure whether by a man or by a woman, and he feels he should choose pretty quickly. His friends' homophobic teasing and interrogations about what he did with his friend Amy the other night leave Tom no space to make up his mind, and he's got no one to ask for advice, except maybe people on the internet. 'Citizenship' captures adolescent confusion with a witty and sensitive charm, crackling with humorous and authentic dialogue.

    'Clap Hands Here Comes Charlie', originally written in 1966, but rewritten in 1991, is a riotous, Rabelaisian stew of a comedy concerning the demonic Charlie who is always trying to jump, with both feet, into his left trouser leg. While making a television programme about buskers, Michael Aylmer finds Charlie Ketchum in a lodging house, clutching a trumpet and stinking to high heaven. Intending to do a special programme on this uniquely virulent and garrulous character, Michael invites him to stay at his house. But when Charlie tries to resume his wandering life accompanied by a few household movables, Michael's wife Joan discovers to her cost that even after a bath and new trousers he is dangerous. The first act ends with his trial; the second act begins with his release from a psychiatric hospital.

    Written in 1978, 'Cloud Nine' was first performed at Dartington College of Arts, Devon, on 14 February 1979. The two acts form a contrapuntal structure and the play uses controversial portrayals of sexuality and obscene language to establish a parallel between colonial and sexual oppression. Its humour depends on incongruity and the carnivalesque, and helps to convey Churchill's political message about accepting people who are different and not dominating them or forcing them into particular social roles.

    First performed in Richmond in 1996, 'Clowns' is the sequel to 'Joyriders', reuniting its characters on the eve of the first IRA ceasefire, eight years after Maureen's death. It is a play about the moment between history and future, its characters trapped by the pain of the past but faintly hopeful about an end to the conflict which has defined their lives.

    'Coffee' centres around the death of a child and asks disturbing questions about the history of the twentieth century, through an examination of what constitutes acceptable behaviour towards children in our time. 'Coffee' was first staged in 2000 at Le Théâtre National de la Colline in Paris. It is the first play in Bond's 'The Paris Pentad' (originally called 'The Colline Tetralogy'), and is followed by 'The Crime of the Twenty-First Century', 'Born', and 'People'.

    'Come Into the Garden Maud' is the final play in the trilogy, 'Suite in Three Keys', in which each play is set in the same Swiss hotel suite. It was written by Coward in 1966, and represents the last of his output for the stage before he died. Anna-Mary Conklin and her husband Verner are an exceedingly wealthy American couple and the stars of 'Come into the Garden Maud'. While Anna-Mary, a social-aspirant, is nervously throwing a dinner-party offstage to entertain a prince she wants to impress, Verner - who cares little for the niceties of society life - gets along very well with the aristocratic, but down-to-earth, Maud Caragnani - very well indeed.

    Simon Weinberg is dead. And, on a November morning, six people gather at his funeral - brothers and a sister, lovers and in-laws. Mourning allows them a special privilege and, for a few hours, they are isolated in another world under a lingering sun, in the shadow of the deceased. 'Conversations After a Burial' is a savage but richly comic play which explores that ineffable moment of mourning, when the newly deceased is still almost palpable, the moment in which one can maintain the memory of a breath, the intense pause between absence and the return to everyday existence, between loss and life. The play premiered at the Almeida Theatre, London, in September 2000.

    Fresh from an apparently successful acting career abroad, Michael has returned to his old home town; back to the youth club-turned-pub where he and his friends once hashed out their plans for the future. That pub, 'The White House', stood as a place where free thought was possible for the young people of the town, away from the church and from the school. Now, though, the reunited friends are tied down to the realities of their lives after youth has given way to slow but steady decay, and as the evening wanes to night, their true lack of direction becomes clear through muddled conversations as pints are poured and drank. Standing over all of this are the absent bar owner JJ and his beloved portrait of the late JFK, both fallen heroes from an idealistic and idealised time now long gone. 'Conversations on a Homecoming' was first performed by the Druid Theatre Company, Galway, on 16 April 1985.

    Premiered at the Royal Court in 2004, 'Country Music' is a dramatic play about love, crime and possibly redemption, with a purity of structure that gives it great emotional force. The play dips in and out of the life of Jamie Carris over twenty years, showing him meeting with his girlfriend, his half-brother and his daughter. It is also the story of his crime - his flight, his time in prison and his attempt to find his way in the world once he is released. Jamie commits a crime, an act of vengeance which is the terrible pivot of the play's action, but Stephens focuses not on his violence but on his relationships and his humanity.

    John Godber's satirical play takes a look at what will happen when climate change finally tightens its grip on the lowlands. Set on the pitches of the rundown Beech Hill Bowling club, we watch across a period of twenty years as the environment disintegrates, and the Yorkshire landscape, both physical and social, is irreparably altered. 'Crown Prince' was first performed in May 2007 at Spring Street Theatre, Hull.
