MEANDER Indoors Theatre Company performed their York St John University Prize-winning work Arthur Author in the York Theatre Royal Studio earlier this week.
For this annual prize, the university and the Theatre Royal teamed up to award one group of final-year St John students the opportunity to develop their work with mentoring from the theatre staff.
Among those who helped to choose the winning piece was the Theatre Royal’s associate director, Juliet Forster.
"Here at York Theatre Royal, we’re very proud of the work we do with the people of York, both young and old, and our partnership with York St John University is a big part of this. The six graduates that make up Meander Indoors created a really exciting performance and worked really hard towards their showcase in the Studio."
Monday night's performance of Arthur Author featured six light bulbs, six chairs and five characters, who were suddenly presented with the freedom to think for themselves. What happened in the play?
"Of course, things get heated and doubt quickly settles among the group," say Meander Indoors. "The very fabric of narrative begins to wane, leaving them susceptible to the threat of dodgy voices, compulsive foot disorders and God awful Sixties pop-culture references."
