Play 1: ‘ODD SOCK’ by RONA CAMPBELL 

Thursday, May 12 at 1.00pm in The Foyer of The Creative Industries Building, Glyndwr University. 

We all have them, but what is it like to be one?

In Rona Campbell’s intriguing play, Odd Sock is thrown out of his home, escapes from the clothes orphanage, Oxfam, and ends up in a theatre’s prop box. He finds himself on the stage and performs to his audience’s socks. Odd Sock is played by celebrated actors Joe Scatley & Harrison Lee.

Bring yourselves and your socks to be entertained. Rona Campbell is a full-time photographer, poet and former Opera singer. She won the Sotheby’s International Poetry competition.

Play 2: ‘THE SLIPPERY SLOPE’ by SUZIE GALE

Friday, May 13 at 1.00 pm in the Hub at the Students’ Guild, Glyndwr University. The school run might never be the same again. What happens when mums turn up to Miss Prisk’s meticulously run school, still wearing their pyjamas or other forms of nightwear? The result is a very funny play by Suzie Gale. See how the traditionalists fare in their battle against the mums in a school that is already in special measures. Suzie Gale was once part of the highly successful performance poetry duo, Wordy Birdies. She works at Coleg Cambria.

Admission is free. The performances will be from the script in hand. In Shakespearean fashion, we will pass a hat around at the end! Both writers are members of the newly formed Wrexham Playwrights.
