Carolyn Pertwee

Nicolas Ridley

Sally Sheringham

This collection of short plays was  presented to a socially-distanced audience and rehearsed online and outdoors on Barnes Green as we did for our previous production Brief Encounters.

Performed and written by members of the professional Actors and Writers London group, they provide short insights into all kinds of waiting – for the right time, the right person or the right decision.
A combination of comic situations and serious dilemmas, they explore what can happen in the space that opens up as we wait.
