by Ken Lucas

Directed by Will Howard

Introduction

Following his disgrace in England, Oscar Wilde is whisked away to France by his friends, to live a secluded life under the pseudonym of Melmoth.

Escapes

by Dee Fancett

Directed by Director

Introduction

Escapes follows one evening in the life of Hackney squatters Sean and Benji who are organising a party. Through the characters and relationships, we learn how all the protagonists choose to escape from reality, or at least the mundanity of their lives. As the evening reaches an end we realise that relationships are not quite as they first seemed.
