Bird and other monologues for young women: (NHB Modern Plays)

Three hard-hitting, distinctive monologues for young female actors, from one of the country’s most exciting young playwrights. Bird is a cutting-edge monologue that throws light on the experience of a teenager in contemporary Britain. It’s four in the morning and Leah is waiting for her boyfriend to call. Over the course of a single night she tells us what it’s like to be fourteen, fearless and full of love. But everything isn’t what it seems, and as the sun comes up, Leah begins to unpick the true nature of her relationship. Bird was first presented by Root Theatre and Echo, on a tour of the UK, in 2014. This edition also includes the monologues Gypsy Girl and Where I’m From.

Badman Graphic T-Shirt Black – M / Black

To celebrate 30 years since The Stone Roses’ played Spike Island, we got together with our friend @aguycalledminty and came up with this new graphic t-shirt design inspired by the iconic gathering-of-the-tribes gig. The Roses would celebrate being at the zenith of their careers for their notorious performance.

Fun, NoPrep Canada Literacy Activities & Canada Day conversations with kids!

Hello my friends! Here in Ontario, we have one week left of classes.

Blackadder Goes Forth Hello Darling inspired illustration Anniversary A6 Card

Praise Kitchener, it's Blackadder!! This is an A6 card (105mm wide by 148mm tall) featuring an illustration inspired by the the fourth Blackadder to grace our screens.
