Nancys Orange + The Butterfly Collector

Two actor-writers take on big issues in this unique double-bill of one-person plays.

In 'Nancy’s Orange', an NHS driver delivers prescriptions to elderly patients along Hadrian’s Wall, discovering lives richly lived through stories of love, loss, sadness and joy, infused with poetry and humour.

'The Butterfly Collector' is a man perched on a tower of furniture in his flooded home, having a picnic and telling moth jokes. Welcome to the future, where butterflies are too few to count, let alone collect, and storms are so frequent they have serial numbers instead of names.
