    'Molly' is a stage adaptation of Gray's earliest television play 'Death of a Teddy Bear', based on the Alma Rattenbury case in which she confessed to her husband's murder, actually committed by her lover, retracted the confession but then committed suicide. Gray based his play, first presented at the Watford Palace Theatre in November 1977, on the effect that the account of the case had on him.

    A deeply poignant, raffishly comic, emotion-charged study of the gulf between parents and children and the anguish of approaching death. Pinter shows, with unflinching candour, that in an age shorn of systems and beliefs we face 'death's dateless date' in a state of mortal terror. 'Moonlight' was first staged at the Almeida Theatre, London, in September 1993.

    Written in 1940 during Brecht's brief exile in Finland, Puntila is one of his greatest creations. A hard-drinking Finnish landowner, Puntila suffers from a divided personality - when drunk he is human and humane; when sober, surly and self-centred. Oscillating unsteadily between these two poles, Puntila plays havoc with his workmen, his women, his daughter's marital arrangements and the loyalty of his sardonic chauffeur, Matti. 'Mr Puntila and his Man Matti' contains some of the best comedy Brecht wrote for the theatre. It was first staged in Zurich in 1948.

    'Much Ado About Nothing', probably composed in 1598-9 and first appearing in quarto in 1600, is a play of two pairs of lovers: the meek Hero and the impressionable Claudio, and the acerbic Beatrice and chauvinistic Benedick. It is one of Shakespeare's best-loved and most frequently performed comedies. Having its sources in Italianate literature of the preceding centuries, scholars have argued that Shakespeare's play takes on an expanded psychological scope from the usual tales of mistaken cuckoldry and bawdy flirtation.

    'Murder in the Cathedral', written for the Canterbury Festival of 1935, was the first high point of T. S. Eliot's dramatic achievement. It remains one of the great plays of the century. Like Greek drama, its theme and form are rooted in religion and ritual purgation and renewal, and it was this return to the earliest sources of drama that brought poetry triumphantly back to the English stage.

    St. Dymphna's is a halfway house for people with mental illness. On the board of management there sits Evelyn, an MP's wife, who is struggling desperately to make people like her; helping her father round the house, acceding to colleagues' requests and absorbing the stress she is quite obviously feeling, her innermost thoughts voiced to the audience by the otherwise unseen Eve. For it seems that Evelyn is also not well, the spectre of mental illness dogging her as she puts on a timid, polite manner and faces the world as though nothing is the matter. Named after the patron saint of the mentally ill - a girl whose father tried to seduce her then murdered her when she refused - St. Dymphna's Community Group Home becomes not just a place of work for Evelyn, but a safer space in which she can work out the problems afflicting her, and cut right to the source that caused them. 'Beside Herself' was first performed at the Royal Court, London, in March 1990.

    Life has become tough for Crystal: her job is in jeopardy; her house has been repossessed; and her daughter has been taken by social services. It is time for Crystal to get going. But in her effort to get her daughter back and put her life on the right track, Crystal is forced to question just how far she is willing to go to survive. 'Bethany' is the story of a charismatic saleswoman forced to make moral compromises and impossible choices in a tough economic climate. It was first presented in the UK at the High Tide Festival in Halesworth, Suffolk, in May 2012.

    'Bingo' uses the last days of a brooding and unheroic William Shakespeare to accuse art and capitalism of vile inhumanity. Historical evidence suggests that not long before his death Shakespeare agreed to the enclosure of common land near Stratford, which was beneficial to landowners such as Shakespeare, but disastrous for small tenants and the parish's poor. For Bond this incident is laced with damning echoes of King Lear's injustices, and motivates his portrayal of the writer as a bourgeois and apolitical capitalist, more occupied with his profits and rents than with the distress of those who depended on the land. 'Bingo' is a thorny cry against exploitation and passivity. It was first performed in 1973 at the Northcott Theatre, Exeter.

    Tired of the unending wittering of Athenian lawmen, Euelpides and Peithetairos flee the city with their trusty feathered companions. However, their hoped-for exile begins with getting lost, and the play opens with them crowing and pecking at one another with all the fury of the most terminally bird-brained democrat. Which is when they meet 'his Hoopoeness', the once king Tereus, whom they convince to take them up to a new city, high above the base and grounded demos, burying the age-old animosity between birds and men and, ultimately, challenging the mighty Zeus for the top spot in the sky. The play is full of the most bawdy of Aristophanes' jokes, and is rife with the exasperated cynicism typical of the early satirist of the earliest democracy.

    'Black Diamond' interrogates contemporary connections and discontinuities between the Africans in Liberia and African Americans in the US. Set in 1999, the play opens in the middle of the second Liberian civil war, which eventually resulted in the overthrow of despot Charles Taylor and his arrest as a war criminal. At issue in this drama is the question of what should be the responsibility of the US to this war-torn African state racked by genocidal atrocities and human rights violations.

    Zimbabwe, 2015. The Mugabe Government has fallen and investigations into its abuses have begun. Eunice Ncube begins the interviewing of Gabriel Chibamu, one of the most infamous perpetrators of the horrors of the Mugabe regime. As Gabriel's trial approaches, Eunice begins to sift through the past - only to find that right and wrong, and guilt and innocence, are far less clear than she first thought. 'Black Jesus' was first performed at the Finborough Theatre, London, in October 2013.

    'Black Mass' is a concise and crucial satire set in a church in Vereeniging, South Africa. As he takes communion, the Prime Minister practises his justification for forcibly moving on a group of black people who have gathered to protest. Bond uses potent imagery and satire to discuss the Sharpeville Massacre of 1960, when police opened fire on a crowd of protestors, killing 69 people. The play originally formed part of a sequence written for the Sharpeville Massacre Tenth Anniversary Commemoration Evening, held by the Anti-Apartheid Movement at the Lyceum Theatre, London, in 1970.

    'Blackout' is the true story of a 15-year-old boy charged with attempted murder who tries to piece together the events in his life that have brought him into a secure care unit and threaten to keep him there. This short play packs a big emotional punch with its stylistic economy and razor-sharp storytelling. It was first performed at the Cottesloe Theatre in July 2008.

    Welcome to the world's most unusual talent contest. Behind the scenes, competitors are laughing and brawling, parading their hopes and fears in front of each other, their loves and losses. But there's a bigger fight to be had on stage: who's going to win? The black, the yellow or the brown guy? This hilariously biting satire exposes the highs and lows of making it as a black actor - a 'blackta'. The first production of 'Blackta' opened in the Maria at the Young Vic on 26 October 2012.

    On the twenty-fifth floor of a monstrous tower block Hector Blavatsky - visionary, architect and patriarch - dominates his family with godlike authority. Fearful of being tainted by the rest of humanity below, the Blavatsky's are in full retreat from the world. But Hector is dying. And when an outsider arrives in their miniature universe the family must finally consider flying the nest and joining `the crushed' - but at what cost? 'Blavatsky's Tower' was first performed at the Lion and Unicorn, London, in April 1998.

    'Blinded by the Light' is a manic black comedy, a madcap farce of drinking, smoking, Mormons, Catholics, transvestites and a saint all crammed into the tiny bedsit of the hapless Mick. Bolger's increasingly surreal comedy is a triumph of riotous humour and sharp observation. It was first produced in 1990 by the Abbey Theatre, Dublin.

But what emerges is a fascinating tangle of disappointments. 'Bloody Poetry was first presented in 1984 at the Haymarket Theatre, Leicester.

    'Bluebird' is a sensitive and melancholy play, composed of brief conversations and lifelong sorrow. Taxi driver Jimmy hears about other people's lives, just for a few moments. In the time it takes to drive them where they want to go, Jimmy hears about walking the streets, lost daughters and changing the lightbulbs by the tube tracks. He is asked whether he believes in ghosts, in love, in the human spirit. And as he drives through the night, the play gets closer to the core of his silences, to the tragedy of his own life, and to where he goes when there's no one in the back seat of his cab. 'Bluebird' was first performed in 1998 at the Royal Court Theatre Upstairs, London.

    In Scotland during the 19th and early 20th centuries, male farm labourers who were hired to work on farms would be required under the terms of their bond to provide a female labourer to work in tandem with them: the women who worked under these terms - primarily in the Border countryside in south-east Scotland - were known as bondagers. Sue Glover's play, set on a typical farm in the 1860s, tells the story of Tottie, a bondager girl, who falls in love with a 'black-eyed plooman' named Kello, an unseen presence who haunts the fringes of this play.

    It is 1995, it is the Eurovision Song Contest and Lulu's 'Boom Bang-a-Bang' is the soundtrack to this exuberant conjuration of a Eurovision party that starts as camp and ends as farce, though there is a real power to Harvey's discussion of sexuality. Norman the lonely neighbour upstairs is trying every trick in the book to get himself invited to the party, but it is strictly for close friends only. In fact, it's really just for people who knew Michael, Lee's deceased boyfriend, as the couple used to host the best Eurovision parties and Lee wants to honour his memory. But most of his friends have opted for a rival party, and so Lee is left with his sister Wendy, the camp and irrepressible Steph, the gorgeous raver Roy, and the sparring couple Nick and Tanya. And the evening he had planned, full of kitsch, Bucks Fizz and douze points, goes astray amid the covert love affairs, accidental fires, memories and tears. 'Boom Bang-A-Bang' was first performed in 1995 at the Bush Theatre, London.

    A street is being evacuated, people piled into trucks - Peter and Donna are ejected from their room, one suitcase each. They are afraid for their son Luke, but he puts on a uniform and joins the fighting, asking questions of an ailing and silent world. 'Born' was first staged at the Avignon Festival in 2006. It is the third play in Bond's 'The Paris Pentad' (originally called 'The Colline Tetralogy'), preceded by 'The Crime of the Twenty-First Century' and 'Coffee', and followed by 'People' and 'Innocence'.
