    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.

    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.

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.

    '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.

    'Herons' is a sensitive and mournful play about urban disaffection and brutality, a deeply affecting examination of vulnerability and violence. The play is set around Limehouse Cut and the Lee River in East London, by a sluggish and almost-lifeless canal, where 14 year-old Billy fishes every day. As he waits patiently for his usual catches, the miserable history of his life and the canal slowly emerges. 'Herons' premiered at the Royal Court Theatre, London, in 2001.

    Euripides' play tells the story of Phaidra's love for her step-son Hippolytos, Theseus's illegitimate son, a man so devoted to his chastity and the cult of Artemis that he spurns the goddess of love Aphrodite. To return the insult, she condemns him via his stepmother's passion, causing the subsequent fall of the royal house. A play that at once cautions people not to disregard the strength of the divine, but also illustrates the futility of trying to second-guess its intention, 'Hippolytos' is an astonishing and disturbing tragedy.

    First performed in Northampton in 2010, this darkly comic monologue takes a journey across London towards a late-night epiphany, exploring the lies we tell ourselves and each other and the fallout when the truth is revealed. Moore's excoriating monologue breaks out of the deadlock of everyday life into a very real, relatable and bitingly comic fury of contemporary desperation.

    In 1611 John Donne was living in a restless, changing world, in which a new Bible, a new science, and a decadent court tore at longstanding loyalties and deeply-held convictions. Unceasingly protean himself, Donne lived several lives at once, writing political tracts as well as popular songs, translating the 'Song of Solomon' at the same time as translating Galileo, and finding his rise in theological circles impeded by his colourful rakish past. At various times a politician, soldier, poet, musician, lawyer, courtier, theologian and cleric; a man born into one of England's most distinguished Catholic families who would die as one of its most renowned Protestants; Donne was always becoming something new. 'Into Thy Hands' is a portrait of this fascinating, eloquent and brilliant man, and his struggle to be faithful to all parts of his body and soul. First presented in 2011 at Wilton's Music Hall as part of Jericho House's 1611 Utopia season, 'Into Thy Hands' is a play about faith, sex and the translation of the Bible.

    15 years ago, Alice was an interrogator in Guantánamo Bay. The pills she took mean she can't remember what she did there. 15 years ago, Bashir was a prisoner, and now he pays her a visit. He is dying of a disease of the liver, an organ he believes is the home of the soul, and so he tracks down Alice in Texas and demands that she donate half her liver.

    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.
