The Cannoneer
by Silvia Manazzone
13 - 17 October, 7.30 pm
You probably already know everything about the three Italian Wars of Independence, about the Unification of Italy in 1860, about the Borboni, the Royal family from Spain who ruled over Sicily and Naples for over 120 years, about General Garibaldi and his thousand volunteers.
And of course you already know everything about Peppa, the orphan from Catania, who dropped the skirt, no, not to live naked, but to acquire male attire for the rest of her life. Who went from being despised by society to single-handedly defeating the cavalry of the Borboni and thus saving the lives of her companions.
Of course you already know all of it, right?... Right?? YOU DON'T?!...
Then you bloody better come to this show and hear it from the horse’s mouth!!!!

The War of the Worlds
by Rhum + Clay and Isley Lynn
24 - 28 November, 7.30 pm
The War of the Worlds follows Meena, a podcast journalist investigating the legacy of Orson Welles’ infamous 1938 radio broadcast, which caused some listeners to believe that an alien invasion was actually taking place.
The play moves between the 1938 broadcast and 2016 present day. Meena travels to Grover’s Mill, New Jersey, to investigate the story of Margaret, a woman whose family allegedly abandoned her for 24 hours after believing the broadcast was real. Margaret’s son, Nick, has grown up with this version of events and initially agrees to share his family’s story for Meena’s podcast.
However, as Meena investigates further with Margaret’s family, different versions of the truth begin to emerge, and a familiar truth is unravelling in front of her.
The 1938 broadcast acts as a mirror for the modern world: people don’t necessarily believe something because it is true; they believe it because it is convincing, because someone they trust tells them, or because they desperately want to believe it.
