Offering a fascinating insight into the award-winning collaborations of playwright Rob Drummond and director David Overend, this collection re-imagines the traditional playtext to incorporate conversation between playwright, director and audience.

Written (and occasionally performed) by Rob Drummond in collaboration with director David Overend, these scripts are a record of a long-term artistic partnership. From the award-winning magic of Bullet Catch (the Arches, 2012), to the audience votes of The Majority (National Theatre of Great Britain, 2017), these six plays open up a space for improvisation and participation, and a range of responses and reactions from the audience. The collection includes four previously unpublished scripts along with up-to-date versions of their most successful productions. With introductory essays and in-text commentary by both the writer and director, this is a valuable resource for practitioners, students, and scholars of contemporary British theatre.

"Remarkable, multilayered and utterly gripping." - The Guardian (on Bullet Catch)

"A startlingly deep reflection on the mysterious relationship between performance and despair." - The Scotsman (on Bullet Catch)
