Have You Any Wool – A regular dinner for a regular family of four regular people suddenly becomes irregular when a credit card goes missing. Fingers start pointing as old stereotypes surface – stereotypes that ultimately prove false. Yet, can opinions truly change?
Salt – A married son who is pressured by his parents to produce an heir, a mother whose world is filled with undying love for her children and how her world comes crashing down when one by one, things start to fall out of place.
Under the Influence – 13-year-old Jane finds herself at Becca’s sleepover one night. Having been left out and teased at school, this is her one chance to prove to the popular kids that she is more than just the nerd they make her out to be. However, Jane soon realises that fitting in with the “cool kids” means having to succumb to peer pressure and begins to wonder if she is really ready to step into unchartered territories with them.
Paper and Skin – What is money made of? The play explores the issue of youths exchanging sexual services for money. After being faced with some financial issues, Damien decides to make a transaction with a stranger. How will his best friend react?
Camouflage – Four plucky youngsters are scheduled to pass a rigorous weapons test to prove their worth as soldiers. Ongoing tensions between Gregory, an entitled young recruit and Chin Siong Wee, the team’s misguided supervising officer culminate in a heated stand-off.
