A black slide with an audience feedback quote for One Off: We really enjoyed the play. Very well written, and performed. Great wit and black humour, whilst depicting the reality of prison life and the sad tragic backgrounds of some who end up in custody. Also a very inspirational story. Thought the cast were superb. Thanks

A black slide with an audience feedback quote for One Off:Thank you So much for a night at your lovely theatre. Brilliantly performed and written. I felt the isolation and loneliness was portrayed imaginatively by the sparse stage set. The sound design hit me emotionally as I felt the dread and fear of the environment...Ric's talent of course is something we up north can be proud of and I am looking forward to more from him.

So, gang, we're finally homeward bound. Turns out I need very specialist treatment (& feel very lucky I can come home & access it in London though we'll miss our Prague life greatly). Help our wee family find somewhere to live? 2 beds, from mid-August, pet friendly...❤️
