Scratch Nights are an opportunity for artists to test and explore new work in front of an audience. As part of the event, audiences will have the chance to offer their opinions after each performance, helping shape the future of these exciting projects.

Acts

The SCALES. Set during the Klondike Gold Rush of 1899, a conman descends into madness, believing he’s discovered a talking fish. A spiritual journey with themes of fake news, abandoned motherhood, and karma. Ex-filmmakers, Guy and Nina, embrace their ambion to create a story for theatre. This is their first aempt at theatre, and have been supported by a wonderfully talented team, including the actor, Guy Henry.
‘Keeper’ is a sharp, darkly funny new performance adapted from a series of short stories by writer Anmarie Bowler. Adapted and brought to life on stage by Rob Thompson, Hillard Morley, and Kat Burton, the piece follows a quick-witted, battle-worn housekeeper juggling family and work in a world of second homes and domestic chaos. Set in a cramped flat shared with her mother and daughter, Keeper explores themes of class, care, and what it really means to call somewhere home – with humour, grit, and a defiant edge. Anmarie is the founder & editor of ‘Brevity’, The Isle of Wight’s Literary Handbill, a zine showcasing the best flash fiction from Island writers.
Written by Sally Lewis An informal conversation with a female Special Operation Executive (SOE) Agent led to the development of this play. Things She Never Said explores the life of a female agent during and after the war, the consequences of signing the Official Secrets Act and the mental effects of duty, secrecy and betrayal. Post- traumatic stress, loyalty, and trauma are key themes in this play.
