Fresh Mountain Air is a story of guns, violence, racism, and politics and the deep divisions affecting all of us.

It follows three young American women who join a hiking organisation and meet for the first time in a secluded cabin in the woods. They return from their first hike to find the innkeeper and their three rental cars gone. It is getting dark, the nearest town is twenty miles away and there is no internet or phone service.

The women find a radio and decide to stay overnight and hike to town in the morning. They hear a radio bulletin announcing there has been a prison break at a nearby maximum security facility. They find a gun in the drawer. Is the threat outside the cabin or within?

Death and his pet cat, Panther have been guiding the souls of the dead into the afterlife for time untold. Until they have a falling out, that is, and the Grim Reaper's pet cat runs away. 

Alone, angry, and missing his best friend, Death goes rogue, sending the universe tumbling into chaos. And that's just the beginning...

Featuring gods, demons, a harrowing taxi ride, a spooky hotel, and a pub in Wales, this is a tale exploring life, death, friendship, and the lengths we'll go for the ones we love. 

Six years after her childhood home was destroyed by wildfires, Ellie travels from London to Greece with the intention of selling it. When she comes face to face with her childhood dreams, first loves and heartbreaks, and journey of migration, will she decide to completely cut ties in order to leave this most recent tragedy behind? 'Home, Sweet Home' is a contemporary coming of age story that captures the tangible and personal impact of climate change on vulnerable regions across the world.

A one-woman comedy-drama about family and dreams

Pauline is not an extra, she’s an additional actress: she adds to the scene. After an unexpected blessing in the form of Samantha, light-of-her-life, she battles a jealous mother, an unhelpful husband, and film sets without crèches, to succeed as a working mother in film and TV, landing her dream role in Eastenders. Or does she? Should her daughter, Samantha, follow in her footsteps? And who would have made a better Florence in Angel of Crimea, Pauline or her daughter?

Mothers’ Day deals with the taboo of competition between mothers and daughters down the generations, and the tension between wanting your offspring to succeed, and wanting the opportunities they have for yourself.

In the wrong hands there are plenty of pitfalls this play could fall into, but Penny Gkritzapi’s direction ensures that’s not the case. - Mike Wells, The Reviews Hub, 2022

Inspired by JB Priestley’s ‘An Inspector Calls’, this project was intended to be Polymorph’s production at Edinburgh Fringe 2020 until circumstances intervened.

The idea for the show arose as an exploration of a possible ‘prequel’ to the Priestley play. The ‘reality’ or otherwise of the Inspector in that work is subject to endless discussion and also the origins of the motivation of that character. The young woman, ‘Eva Smith’, likewise is deliberately not necessarily a real individual and does not appear in the original play.

"From the condemned cell at Pentonville Prison and the infamous address, the latest one-man show from Jan van der Black examines the psyche and the soul of the serial killer, John Reginald Halliday Christie. Although forever associated with the tragic case of Timothy Evans, Christie was responsible for at least eight murders, and this play examines his motivations, his own admissions and the circumstances and activities that led him to the condemned cell. Drawing on transcripts from trials, medical reports on Christie, we reveal the story behind the story of one of Britain's most notorious serial killers."
