New for May: Silent Echo by Purple Dreams on 4th & 5th May

A new thriller written especially for The ‘Empty Stage’ Tour, tracking the relationships of four friends – two couples – over the course of a picnic, as they realise who their friends are, and more importantly who they are. Discussing their visions of the future, opinions and beliefs, they unveil secrets that threaten to either strengthen their friendships… or shatter them. ‘Silent Echo’ begins with a laid back humour but races to a heart pounding and unexpected climax.

New for May: Kissing Angels by Purple Dreams on 24th & 25th May

Angel has the perfect life. She has fame, fortune and a very wealthy fiancé. But when her uber-wealthy husband-to-be is killed off under suspicious circumstances, Angel finds herself penniless – and nobody wants to know! Only the school friend she used to bully, a slightly crazed stalker and a mysterious stranger will give her the time of day – but will they help her get her life back on track? ‘Kissing Angels’ is a new comedy written especially for The ‘Empty Stage’ Tour, presenting a few twists and turns on the way to a heart-warming climax.
