“It’s a bit weird to be sitting in the Arctic Circle chatting to a fit boy with your Dad’s ashes in your backpack”

Rory’s Dad was an explorer. Well, not literally. Literally he was a Geography teacher. But inside, she knows, he was Bear Grylls.

And when he dies suddenly in an accident, Rory knows he needs her help to make one last expedition.

With a plastic compass and Dad’s ashes at her side, Rory sets off in the footsteps of all the dead beardy explorers before her, to get Dad to the North Pole. Before Mum finds out they’ve gone.

A Hundred Words for Snow is about being an explorer in a melting world. It’s a coming of age story. With polar bears.

After its original run at VAULT Festival 2018, the show transferred for a month long run at Trafalgar Studios on the West End, from March 5th-30th 2019. That run garnered us 3 Offie nominations, for Best Director, Most Promising Playwright, and Best Play, and a win for Gemma Barnett as Best Actress.

Winner of the VAULT Festival Origins Award for Outstanding New Work.  

“If you think really really hard can you make anything happen? Can you fall in love? Win the lottery? Solve unhappiness?”

ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE IF YOU THINK ABOUT IT HARD ENOUGH is a play about loss and about love. It is about wanting to fix someone you didn’t mean to break.
