Bad Indian by Saaj Raja
An autobiographical one‑man show. A first-generation British Indian walks the tightrope between culture, family, and identity – blending storytelling, humour, and a dash of Bollywood. Too British for the Indians, too Indian for the Brits, and, if you ask his Mum, a very bad Indian.
Hi Mum by Marilyn Bond
This play is about a familiar Dear Mum scam where mum receives a text message out of the blue from someone claiming to be her son or daughter. This mum plays along but is she really fooled?
Hot Girl Summer by Sheryl Malcolm and Melodi Boreland
Two women. A restaurant. A meet up. Olivia and Faith meet and have an emotional discussion revealing the ups and downs of their lives. Old college friends who have felt the absence of true friendship, freedom and fun. Can Olivia and Faith reconnect and truly begin to live their best lives?

In a busy GP waiting room, a chatty exuberant older woman engages a quiet young woman in a heart-warming and hilarious conversation. However, all is not as straightforward as it seems…
