The second collection of work by Olivier award-winning British
playwright Laura Wade, bursting with her trademark satirical humour and
her sharp, witty insight into gender and privilege.
Posh (2010): the cult sensation which propelled Laura Wade onto the
national stage and inspired the film The Riot Club (2014). Based on
Oxford's real-life Bullingdon Club, the play unfolds during an evening
of debauchery in an all-male elite student dining society.
Kreutzer vs. Kreutzer (2010): a play for voices to be performed with
an orchestra, re-imagining Tolstoy's The Kreutzer Sonata as an
intimate two-hander.
Home, I'm Darling (2018): a dark comedy about marriage and
relationships, following one woman in the quest to be the perfect 1950s
housewife. Winner of the 2019 Olivier Award for Best New Comedy.
The Watsons (2018): a sparkingly funny new take on the unfinished
Jane Austen novel, catapulting the characters into a contemporary
context whilst dealing with questions of authorship and writer's block.
