✁ Do We Look Like Refugees? Assembly @ George Street, 5–30 August, 11.35am £10 (£9 conc)
‘Do We Look Like Refugees?! is a verbatim piece by Alecky Blythe created from interviews recorded in a refugee settlement in Georgia. As the temporary shelter becomes more permanent, stories of love and enterprise emerge. Poignant and surprisingly humorous. A workshop collaboration with the Rustaveli Theatre, Tbilisi and National Theatre Studio. Subtitles. “... a wonderfully fresh, knowing and funny piece of work.” The Sunday Telegraph, for The Girlfriend Experience (Alecky Blythe, 2009)

Guaranteed to take your (bad) breath away. Free breath mints at the door! A rare opportunity to see one of the new waves of American comedy perform in Europe. “Charlyne Yi kills so hard on screen in ‘Knocked Up’ that afterwards people think she is one of the stars of the film” Judd Apatow

The Silver Darlings, written in 1941, is an epic tale of land and sea – a story of love lost and found again. When a community is forced from the land to the coast they struggle to find a new living from the sea along the North Coast of Scotland. Catrine's new husband Tormad is taken from her and press-ganged into a life at sea: she has to continue without knowing if he is alive or dead. ✁
“a tremendously successful piece of popular theatre….pacey, professional and full of passion” The Scotsman
WINNER FESTIVAL DIRECTORS’ AWARD – Melbourne Comedy Festival 2010. Best Comedy Nominee – Adelaide Fringe 2010.
Before her Assembly Rooms debut last year, Hannah decided to walk across England. She now brings her latest low key, heartbreakingly funny offering, based on that really bad idea. In a world obsessed with perfecting youth, beauty and achievement, Hannah clearly missed the boat. Faced with an uphill battle she simply turned around. This show is about preparing for a graceful downhill shuffle. ✁
