Surfacing and The Silence and the Noise
Two plays by the 2021 Papatango Prize-winning playwright Tom Powell.

Surfacing

NHS therapist Luc is fine. Honest. She's definitely not overwhelmed by meeting Owen, a new client, definitely not freaked out by what she's started seeing, definitely doesn't think her reality has been punctured and something else is leaking in. Luc goes for a swim and feels a hand dragging her down to the bottom of the lake… When she surfaces, her reality is different. She's haunted by tormented mice, shape-shifting people, and secrets she thought she'd buried.

This breathtaking new two-hander creates a contemporary Through The Looking Glass world. It premiered in February 2023.

The Silence and the Noise
Winner of Best Online Production at the Offies Awards 2024

Ben and Daize are teenagers either side of a county line. Drug runner and daughter of an addict. As the adult world around them becomes deadly dangerous, do these natural enemies have it in them to save each other?

The Silence and The Noise won the Papatango Prize, and captures the story of two young people on the edge.
