Caryl Churchill’s play hinged on a powerful juxtaposition. Four elderly women sit in a sunlit garden dwelling on times past, at one point even breaking into a version of Da Doo Ron Ron. Meanwhile, one periodically cuts through the chat to offer a vision, in seven monologues, of a world of flood, fire, thirst and starvation. This was no routine road to dystopia, but a wryly compassionate play about life’s soon-to-be-lost daily beauty. MB Read the review. 7 Matilda (2010) Playas are among the flattest known landforms. Their slopes are generally less than 0.2 metre per kilometre. When filled with only a few centimetres of water, many kilometres of surface may be inundated. It is the process of inundation that develops and maintains the near-perfect flatness so characteristic of these arid-region landforms. Our top recommendation is the Australian Theatre for Young People‘s platform ATYP On Demand, which streams past productions for ages 10-26 as well as other educational material. The Children’s Theatre of Cincinnati offer up a portal called TCT Everywhere, as does the Windmill Theatre’s Windmill at Home (also based in Australia).

You will see the struggle of the hero or heroine and their quest to overcome adversity. Don't worry, though; it usually ends on a happy note! During the pandemic, many prominent theatre companies began streaming their own shows on dedicated company portals. While you are tied to one company, and the selection is often less extensive, this is where some of the best theatre online can be found.

London’s West End is known the world over as the home of theatre. Millions of theatregoers descend on England’s capital each year, and plays in London are often top of the agenda. Visitors come to enjoy spectacular performances in a spectacular city. As one of the major attractions for residents and visitors, such productions are always high in demand. Lucy Prebble’s was the first in a number of plays skewering corporate corruption following the financial crash. Dealing with the rise and fall of an overextended Texan energy company that started trading in the internet and even the weather, Prebble’s play was an exhilarating mix of political satire, modern morality and – in Rupert Goold’s production – Citizen Kane-like spectacle.

Photograph: Tristram Kenton/The Guardian 23 The Height of the Storm (2018)Saline flats are specialized forms located adjacent to large bodies of water, as, for example, along coasts, lakeshores, and deltas. They flood during storms, either with surface runoff or with surges from the nearby body of water. The saline crusts of saline flats are quite similar to those that develop in playas. Physical characteristics This leads us to our third answer: there is no reason you shouldn’t pursue any opportunities to act on stage. If you’re unfamiliar, familiarise yourself. And if you’re not a fan, go find out what works for you! If you’re a business-minded actor, think of it this way: why deny yourself an entire possible stream of revenue/career clout, because you “don’t work on stage”? You should immerse yourself in theatre because, as an actor, it is your business. Has been for millennia.

In fact, the popular perception of medieval history as seen through the rulers of the period is pure Shakespeare. We have given ourselves entirely to Shakespeare’s vision. What would Bolingbroke (Henry IV) mean to us today? We would know nothing of him but because of Shakespeare’s plays, he is an important, memorable and significant historical figure.

Taylor Mac’s A 24-Decade History of Popular Music, performed at Melbourne festival in 2017. Photograph: Sarah Walker 5 A 24-Decade History of Popular Music (2016)Dennis Kelly and Tim Minchin’s dizzily enjoyable musical about Roald Dahl’s telekinetic bookworm sings the importance of two invaluable resources: public libraries and arts subsidy. Produced by the Royal Shakespeare Company, it became a global sensation thanks to its sweetly spiky songs, empowering celebration of the imagination and brilliantly rebellious heroine who puts the “revolt” into revolting rhymes. While her mum is at the bingo, Dahl’s Matilda spends “two glorious hours” at the library. This gives the same pleasure in the theatre. CW Read the review. 6 The York Realist (2001)
