The Promised Land
Rhiannon is thirteen and has a recurring dream about the end of the world. She is not like her classmates; there are no birthday parties, Christmas trees, pop music or make-up. She can recite all the books of the bible, the Ten Commandments, the twelve sons of Jacob and is fearful of being possessed by the devil. Despite her fears she is beginning to find her voice and her own identity and secretly loves peering at the twinkly Christmas lights in wintery windows.

Mr President had a scratch performance at Camden People's Theatre as part of Sprint Festival.
"More than a year on from Trump’s Inauguration, this physical theatre piece is a glimpse into a Trump rally. The performance will focus on the role of women in the ceremony in light of Donald Trump’s comments towards women. The piece will be highly theatrical with rousing national songs, grand costumes for the Trump rally."

giant teddies and disco dancing to her new born son."
