This is an off beat version of the famous English anti nuclear cartoon parable. Jim and Hilda Bloggs hear that a nuclear strike is headed their way. Armed with government leaflets, they construct a refuge with the solid cheerfulness they felt during the blitz. Trusting in the powers that be, they emerge after the bombing and wait for government assistance. Radiation sickness takes them, still loving each other and uttering prayers.|2 women, 4 men

This enthralling adaptation of one of C. S. Lewis's Narnian stories tells the adventures of the Dawn Treader, a dragon-ship led by Caspian, King of Narnia. The story is a traditional quest and the marvels include dragons, invisible islanders and a lake that turns everything to gold. The play can be simply staged with few scenic requirements and no elaborate props.

Several Russian folk tales are fused together in this charming and magical adventure for young and old alike. Prince Ivan's mission to capture the Firebird takes him first to the castle of Koschei, the sorcerer, from whom the Firebird has been stolen by the wicked Baba Yaga. With a soft-hearted Wolf and the wooden-hearted Princess Vasilisa (bewitched by Koschei) accompanying him, Ivan travels on to Baba Yaga's hut where the final struggle commences... Music, magic, puppetry and comedy infuse this delightful story which is ideal as a seasonal entertainment or even, with its predominantly forest setting, as an outdoor show.|3 women, 2 men, 6 women or men
