Singular Female Voices

By Moira Buffini, Anna Reynolds, Catherine Johnson, Stewart Permutt

Three remarkable short plays for one (female) actor.

Jordan by Moira Buffini & Anna Reynolds
The true story of Shirley Jones, who kills her baby boy, Jordan, rather than have him taken away by his abusive father.

The Lost Art of Keeping a Secret by Catherine Johnson
The alternating stories of two women (played by the same actress), both of whom 'lose' their sons - one murdered, the other a runaway.

Unsuspecting Susan by Stewart Permutt
The story of Susan - whose life revolves around her dogs, am-dram, bell-ringing and village gossip - and her adult son who's converted to Islam.
