IN DEVELOPMENT:

Very Special Guest Star - The third in Tom Wright's hugely successful coming-of-age trilogy, this is a provocative and darkly entertaining exploration of white and middle-class gay privilege.

​

I Ain't Dumb - Tom's hard-hitting new play sees a proudly inclusive tough inner-city Coventry school explode into a rapidly escalating identity war.
