    As someone who loves Edvard Munch, this short play sheds a new darkness on existentialism. It’s quite like Dickens’ ‘A Christmas Carol’ in a way!

    PPD isn’t spoken about often enough, so this allegory is certainly welcome! It brings a whole new layer to the phrase, ‘away with the fairies’.

    This is a translation of a philosophical play! With echoes of Sartre’s ‘No Exit’, ‘The Story of the Man Who Turned into a Dog’ will bring atmosphere to any theatre!

    There's a unique poesie to this short two-hander. I would actually like to see an expanded version of this!

    “

    This play makes you laugh out loud at its absurdity. You almost forget about the true centre of the tootsie pop, but soon enough, your teeth will find resistance.

    I’ve always been fascinated by corpse flowers, so this two-hander about agency and love is a clever distraction from the stench of death!

    On the surface, this would seem like a very simple play, but underneath is anything but. This would seem to me to be a metaphor for when your life path doesn't go the way you anticipated. In a world that seems to be regressing, Cameron's two-hander acts as a prophecy.
