Synopsis

Two award-winning modern feminist classics first seen at London's Royal Court Theatre.

My Heart's a Suitcase is 'a fiercely original parable of modern materialism set in a grand, empty seaside flat, where two friends are spending the weekend' Financial Times. The play 'sits firmly in the honourably incensed and censorious tradition of Look back in Anger. It could prove to be just as significant. Observer.

'Low Level Panic is the constant fear that runs through women's lives like a cold underground stream, its source is male violence and it is fed by tributaries of pornography. Clare McIntyre's play has a deadly accurate ear, a subtle sense of humour and a deep fund of compassion: she writes with thrilling understanding.' Time Out.
