The ability to connect with the audience through her storytelling of a Somali mum was incredibly touching.

From A Mother’s Song to Islander, Kirsty Findaly’s vocals and performance capabilities have always been impressive and distinct – carrying a unique voice which conveys the emotional structure of the number and enhances the lyrics.

Raised to be seen and not heard, a group of young women suddenly find their words have a terrible power. Women empowerment is very important to me, especially as a muslim as I think its a must that we set the path for the next generation. I also really like the ability to watch the plays with close captioning, and the ability to download the programs to watch offline.

Play Scotland are delighted to launch their Home play pack which will be free to organisations working with children and families in these challenging times. The original production, starring Ralph Richardson, opened at the Theatre Royal, Brighton in February 1950. That's not to say these two actors don't rise admirably to the challenge, however and both feisty performances glean their fair share of laughs. All of our plays and video content on National Theatre at Home are captioned with optional subtitles. Despite being institutionalised all four individuals are in the same situation yet their misconceptions and deceptions are relevant to the same conditions today and in society as a whole.

Amal has dreams to open up her own cafe but feels like she needs to make sure her younger sister is secure by helping her apply to grad schemes. An unnamed role but one with a tremendous amount of weight behind it, Strachan gives those in the audience a foundation if they’re unfamiliar with adoption or the struggles of raising kids who find things difficult.Constructed with snippets of autobiographical experiences from its creatives, Forever Home is a brand-new musical from Pauline Lockhart and Alan Penman, stitching together original music and lyrics with humour to show audiences that even when we cannot empathise with someone, there are still things we can do to help: they just have to recognise they need that help first.

Samm-Art Williams’ Tony-nominated 1979 play, seen Sunday, May 14, at the African American Art and Culture Complex, is that rare drama that earns every pang of homesickness, every longing for bygone days, that it sets out to conjure. When you cancel your subscription, video access will exist until the next charging cycle, but you will not be charged further. It was revived off-Broadway by the Actors Company Theatre (TACT) in 2006, starring British actor Simon Jones and American actress Cynthia Harris. Cress was resident director at the National Theatre Studio from 2007-2008 and although she has directed classical work nationally and internationally-including for the Globe, RSC and British Council-new writing is her passion.

Play has never been more important to help children get through these difficult times but given the current pressures on families, it can be a real challenge for all of us to find time to play. The play premiered at the Royal Court Theatre in London in 1970, then transferred to Broadway where it ran for more than a hundred performances and was nominated for a Tony award.
