F*ck the Polar Bears (NHB Modern Plays)

Tanya Ronder

Sinossi

A raucous family drama about the cost of living the life of our dreams.
Gordon and Serena have worked hard to get where they are. He's on the verge of a massive promotion at an energy giant. She's preparing for a move into the house of their dreams.
The family appear to be cooking on gas.
But behind their perfect front door, light bulbs are blowing, the drains keep blocking, and a phone inexplicably refuses to charge. Not to mention that daughter Rachel's adored toy polar bear is nowhere to be found.
F*ck the Polar Bears premiered at the Bush Theatre, London, in September 2015.

Poets of the Eighteenth Century...

Robert Burns, William Blake,...

For many in Europe the focus has shifted west to the Americas, both by settlement and by war against the indigenous tribes.  And then between themselves. 
 
Democracy would be reborn by the American War of Independence. In the East India becomes the stage for further expansion. For our wordsmiths the world had become a wider page on which to write their thoughts.  Coleridge, Pope, Southey, Wordsworth speak with lyrical eloquence on subjects both great and small.  But always form the heart.
