Bucksomly Betrothals

Theatre Paradok

Alan Rivers, former bowling world champion, has it all – glory (Bowling World Championship trophy), riches (semi-detached house in Milton Keynes), hair (thinning). Or rather, he almost has it all: Alan is alone. He’s on a mission to find love, with the help of Geraldine Bucksomly, the owner of Bucksomly Betrothals, a matchmaking agency. But Geraldine is facing financial ruin, Alan’s bowling success is perhaps not all that it seems, and a mysterious stranger has appeared in town with a thirst for revenge…

    Come As You Are

    The whole family gathers to celebrate Katherine’s birthday; her husband, her kids, her best friends and her brother-in-law. Her lovely, stress-free evening seems to be going exactly to plan, until her brother arrives – it would seem he did not make the invite list. He barges his way through her ineffectual husband, with the assistance of her enthusiastic children and autocratic brother-in-law and finds himself in the midst of a dinner party he ought not attend.

    Countdown

    Curious about what it's actually like to be a teacher? Join Kelvin, a young, idealistic educator as he unsuccessfully navigates a teacher's day-to-day challenges, courtesy of the education system. Contrary to popular belief, teaching is not a calling. Countdown is a play that exposes what teachers go through on a daily basis and challenges the stigma surrounding discourse on teachers' mental health. Written from personal experience, it highlights the lack of support that teachers receive, demarcates the fine line separating dedication and burnout, and is a stark reminder that teachers are, at the end of the day, only human.
