HEMINGS & CONDELL - PART ONE
John Hemings (1566-1630) and Henry Condell (1576-1627) are two names that you may not recognise but are two names that are fundamentally responsible for Shakespeare's surviving works. Together they collated the great bard's plays into the very first folio in 1623, 7 years after the death of William Shakespeare. Now 400 years later, Bamalam Productions are delighted to bring Martin Keady's version of events to life in this two-part story covering the lives of two of history's overlooked heroes. In Part One, we follow Hemings and Condell through their days as players, meeting a little unknown playwright called Will and as they fight to cement their place as thespians and erect a theatre that would become a beacon of light in a country infested with plague and treasonous murmurings...

TALK ABOUT THE PASSION
Talk About The Passion is an intense, twisting study of guilt and grief, and the media’s fascination with serial killers. A young child is horrifically murdered, leaving his father tortured by impossible guilt. Meanwhile, the autobiography of the serial killer is a hit publication and the publisher, Evelyn Ayles, has made a fortune from the book. Now Jason Carroway comes to her office after his manuscript is rejected and he is determined to make her hear his story, one way or another. The Bamalam Team are delighted to bring this adaptation to life for audio. Talk about the Passion was first performed in 1998 at the Birds Nest Theatre, London and the original play is available for purchase online: https://www.bloomsbury.com/uk/talk-about-the-passion--rattlesnakes-9780413774798/
