New Writing Showcase 

By the Putney Playwrights

Tuesday 13 - Saturday 17 January 2026

Matinee at 15:00 on Saturday 17 January

Putney Arts Theatre - Studio

PTC’s resident writers’ group, the Putney Playwrights, presents the premiere of six new plays, by turns hilarious and haunting, passionate and preposterous.

About the plays:

The Apology

By Roger Blitz

Mary - Carmina Cordelia

Terry - Tom Marchant

Jean - Elsie Tierney

Gary - Bríon O’Sullivan

When a seemingly trivial incident drives a wedge between four friends, the fallout becomes an absurd comedy of pride, guilt, and grammar. The Apology explores the hilarious and painful complexity of saying “sorry” and meaning it.

Swipe

By Ris Dabrowa

Kate - Helen Wieland

Jeremy - Elliott Fenn

At a lonely London bus stop, two strangers clash and connect through banter, irritation, and unexpected honesty. Swipe is a funny and tender two-hander about connection, authenticity, and what it means to “swipe away” our troubles.

Whimper

By Megan Good

Ivy - Louise Bradshaw

A teenage girl writes a letter to her mother — one filled with memories, confessions, and the quiet ache of wanting to be understood. Whimper is a darkly funny and painfully honest exploration of guilt, adolescence, and the things we never manage to say.

Are We Happy?

By Peter Singer

Patient - Sarah Kitchen

Doctor - Shinata Patel

Assistant - Carol Hudson

In a sterile surgery, a routine consultation spirals into absurdity as a patient tries to express his unravelling sense of self to a doctor who isn’t really listening. Are We Happy? is a bleakly comic three-hander about the failure of communication, the limits of empathy, and the quiet horror of modern existence.

The Unbelievable Grey Man

By Mike Tierney

Boy - Mayte Horn Montoya

A young boy recounts the night a man fell out of his television. The Unbelievable Grey Man is a surreal, funny, and haunting glimpse of what happens when fiction breaks through into reality.

The Thing That Follows You Home

By Robert Wallis

Speaker - Julia Blyth

When is a ghost story not a ghost story? The Thing That Follows You Home is a chilling meditation on theatre, creation, the power—and danger—of imagination.

The SEAFARer

By Conor McPherson, Directed by Ian Higham

Tuesday 17 - Saturday 21 February 19:45 with afternoon matinee at 15:00 on Saturday 21st February.

Putney Arts Theatre - Main Stage

About the play:

A breathtaking supernatural play from Ireland’s greatest storyteller.

It's Christmas Eve and Sharky has returned to Dublin to look after his blind brother, Richard. As the two men rattle around their old house, they are joined by local layabouts Ivan and Nicky –– and a stranger, new to town, the mysterious Mr Lockhart.

Over a night fuelled by alcohol and resentment, a game of cards is on the table. But the cost of losing may be higher than anyone imagines…

From Conor McPherson, award-winning author of 'The Weir' and 'Girl from the North Country', comes a blackly funny, haunting tale of family and friendship, steeped in whiskey and stirred by regret and the need for redemption.

“Sparkling and suspenseful… McPherson is a born yarn-spinner”

Guardian

“A realistic fantasy, a wide-awake nightmare. The writing is poetic, brutal, athletic, hilarious”

Sunday Times

“Conor McPherson is the heir to the great Irish tradition of absorbing tale telling”

Observer

“The finest dramatist of his generation”
