My Heart's A Suitcase:
M2 (18, early 50s) F4 (early 20s, 30, indeterminate age). A room

Chris is an impoverished waitress, paranoid and angry at her lot in life. Hannah, a ceramics teacher with the beginnings of multiple sclerosis, is calm and genuinely unmaterialistic. Their weekend in Brighton is interrupted by visits from Tunis, shopaholic wife of the flat-owner, and Elliott, a drunken down-and-out. Chris also has spectral visits in the shape of Pest, a bad memory, and Luggage, the Patron Saint of Heavy Burdens. It seems Chris can never escape her lot.


Low Level Panic:
F3 (20s)

Presented by the Women's Playhouse Trust at the Royal Court Theatre Upstairs in 1988 and the Lyric Studio, Hammersmith in 1989, this is a careful examination of the role of pornography in our society and the way it affects three young women in particular, using short scenes to show how popular images of women influence the way they are seen by others and the way they see themselves.
