“Hello Luton, it’s midnight and you’re listening to the all-nighter with Danny and Alex!”
Andy Harker’s debut comedic drama centres around two radio DJ’s bursting with enthusiasm on air, but bursting with troubles off it. They’re both growing tired of playing the same old songs every night, plus there’s a new awkwardness that pervades the atmosphere between them. It’s three weeks since they seemingly made a drunken error, and tonight things will get no better. Their producer is running around like crazy, Danny’s in a bad mood, and an outrageous guest is about to push him to the edge…
Bed
Cartwright puts his more familiar social realism on the back burner for this meditation on ageing and mortality, although his customary humour and poetic writing remain very much to the fore.
Seven bed mates put in a hard day's night, flitting between fitful dreams and submerged memories, watched over all the while by a taunting and mischievous bed head. Using music, movement and song, this production follows these travellers on their long journey into night.
