    Non-existent Shadow @ 7:30pm

    Life is a sad river singing a song no one hears. What’s going to happen after life? What has happened in life? What’s life?

    Written, Directed and Performed by Yu Ting Hung

     

    Anne and Mary @ 8:30pm

    Anne Bonny and Mary Read sit behind bars for piracy, reflecting on what brought them there and the stories yet to come. Will they be remembered as trailblazers or villains?

    Awaiting execution for Piracy, Anne Bonny and Mary Read sit behind bars reflecting on what brought them there and what more is to come. How will history remember them? Which stories get told and which stories lose themselves in time? Neither woman has the answer, only the stories they carry with them and the choices they have made. With their execution creeping nearer and nearer will Anne and Mary face the reality that this may well be the end of their story? Or will they once again sail against the tide, taking control over their lives?

    Written by Rebekah Taylor with actors as co script consultants

    Directed by Rebekah Taylor

    Performed by Shannon Mack and Camilla Ballerini

    “British theatre would be completely stymied without tiny, under-resourced venues such as CPT, which are a critical part of the theatre ecology.”
