Ruffled Feathers by Susan Cooke
Directed by Denise Rocard – The dancers in the Saga production of Swan Lake are preparing for their big moment in the corps de ballet, but then a critical review puts the cat among the pigeons as one of the soloists threatens to walk out. Can ruffled feathers be smoothed?

Welcome to Whitemore by Andy Moseley
Directed by Malin B. Erikson – Thom, the owner of a bar in a ghost town in Nebraska, is about to shut up shop for the evening when a stranger arrives. Thom isn’t too pleased to see the stranger. The stranger isn’t too pleased to see Thom.
Little Grains of Sand by Andy Moseley
Directed by Graham Large – Sylvie and Norman are going on holiday together. They’re going back to the place where they met, but there is one big difference about their visit this time.
Rupert and the Search for a Modern Adventure by Michael Staniforth
