Dr Zeiffal, Dr Zeigal and the Hippo That Can Never Be Caught! was first commissioned for the 2015 Folkestone Living Advent Calendar, JimJamArts.

"reporters always ask me - so why do you write such strong female characters?
....because you're still asking me that question." (Joss Whedon)
SUPERFUNADVENTURETIMES was inspired by our deep love of the fantasy genre and a growing frustration with the lack of female role models within this. It's a story about friendship and the different roles we play in life - the sidekick, the hero, the mentor, the baddy and how these are constantly changing. It also features excellent dancing, epic battle scenes, and an acapella sound track. We were awarded the Farnham Malting's No Strings Attached grant and developed the show through Camden People's Theatre's SPRINT and Calm Down Dear Festivals.

HAM
Written by Nathan Wood
Directed by Georgia Murphy
★★★★★
Part confessional, part live at the Apollo. A wonderful study of disappointment and failure"
Views from the Gods
"You were standing sultry in the rain
If I could've held you
I would've held you
Rip it up and start again"
Lyrics by Orange Juice
Ham is a solo performance of Noah’s Ark performed by Noah’s one disobedient son – who’s technically your distant uncle. Now that he’s got an audience, Ham wants to explain the choices he made, and why he stood aside and watched as his world got washed away. A darkly comic tale of loss and forgiveness featuring party rings, disco balls and Orange Juice.
