THEME
*********
This month our theme is smoke Stories about smoke, fire and fumes. The smoke from a cigarette, the smoke from a campfire, and smoke rising in the distance. The smell of smoke left on your clothes, smoking drugs in the back of the care, and that person who was smoking hot. The piece of evidence you found that was the smoking gun. The time your carefully laid plans went up in smoke, or the time you had to flee from a burning building.

The airbnb with a wood fuelled fireplace, the candle that was snuffed out. Incense, offerings and explosions. Burning the mid night oil, fumigating the house, and setting off a fleabomb. The flare you used to signal to rescuers, or the smoke grenade you used to hide your movements..

Have you got a story about smoke? Then come share it with us, May 17th at The Wardrobe Theatre
