About this ebook

Fraser and Dougie are watching a suspect.
Sal is learning a new dance.
An explosion rips through the city.
But you're just getting on with your own life.
Aren't you?

First performed at the Edinburgh Festival 2007, Man Across the Way is a dazzling, anarchic new play about surveillance, tap-dancing and the new world order.

Magpie Park features a Harvey Nics store detective with a dodgy past and a florist with a missing sister. What brings them together in a room at the Queens Hotel?
Part mystery, part romance, this tender-hearted thriller follows the two on a trail through Leeds from the bright lights of Briggate to the birds of Hyde Park.
Magpie Park was first performed at West Yorkshire Playhouse as part of the Northern Exposure Festival.
