Dennis Kelly DNA Scene 3 (first performed in 2008 at the Cotteloe theatre with the National Theater) Character: Leah played by Ruby Bentall Directed By Paul Miller

Don’t. No words. There's no point, so, what’s the point? Why are you going, is it me, is it us, is it what we've done, is it what we're becoming. Why Leah, why, is it me, is it the impossibility of saying exactly what you mean? There's no point Phil. So don’t even try. I'm outta here. I'm gone. I'm a part of history, I'm a jet plane, I'm moving , I'm discovering, I'm, I'm, Sayonara baby, Sayonara Phil and hello discovery. And yer don’t even try to stop me, because, because, exit stage left Leah right now. Right now. Right now. Right now. Right now, Phil, Right fucking, I mean it! I really really. You’re not going to stop me are you. You’re not even thinking about stopping me.

New Blog

Hello all! Hope that you manage to join the blog :) for the first post, i'm going to type up the plays we were told of today..get the ball rolling!

For Girls:
Shelagh Stephenson- Memory of Water/ Five Kinds of Silence
Anthony Minghella - Cigarettes and Chocolate
Lorca - Blood Wedding (look at modern translations such as Ted Hughes)
Frank McCourt
Neil LaBute - Fat Pig / The Shape of Things etc.
Enda Walsh
Leo Butler - Redundant (northern play)
How to Disappear Completely and Never be Found - Finn Kennedy
Sophie Treadwell - Machinal
Ed Thomas
Philip Riddley
Laura Wade - Breathing Corpses



In addition to this, personally i would recommend girls to read Bryony Lavery's More Light (A NT connections piece) - i have a copy of this if anyone would like to borrow it- it is a play about imperial concubines who are immured into their Emporers tomb when he dies, and shows the extent to which humans will go to survive- also mainly all women roles!
