The Uncaged Theatre Winter Showcase, ‘Connections’, features four new writing pieces, by female-identifying writers, each lasting 30 minutes with a 15-minute interval. The plays explore themes such as troubled relationships, blurred boundaries, contemporary challenges faced by women, and the comedic but poignant upheaval caused by a forgotten friend in an ordinary family
Stable by Taruna Nalini
Jack, a troubled psychologist, is drawn to his patient Ava. In his therapy with Tara, he attempts to explore his feelings but falters. Meanwhile, Ava's newfound ease from therapy prompts her to invite home, Nathan, an old friend, resulting in troubling consequences for her and subsequently for Jack. This gripping narrative delves into relationships, boundaries, and the repercussions of our actions.
As We Know It by Paige Farnham
Two lifelong friends, Charlie and Georgia, are on the cusp of adulthood. Instead of being excited for their coming of age, they think it’s all coming to an end. After discovering secrets on the dark web, exposing an imminent world ending threat, they decide to spend their last night alive together.
How I See Things by Sophia Spooner
How I See Things explores some of the contemporary challenges that women experience today. The stories have been formed by an ongoing dialogue growing out of conversations and workshops with women. The play is raw and uncomfortable, containing challenging themes, depicting women in their most private and personal space, the bedroom.
