Our
Productions
We are Night-Light Theatre CIC and we make theatre holding community, collaboration and social justice at the heart of all our work. Through our work, we hope to open conversations, build healthy relationships, connect, inspire, and promote hope and positive change through our productions & creative community work.
​
We want to make this work as we believe these stories are important and will open up conversations around relationships, loss, mental health, social justice & motherhood. The themes of these shows will resonate with many different people, in different ways as we aim to showcase strength in vulnerability and the powerful voices of women.
​
This opportunity will support us in our mission to grow, connect & create work that can be shown in the public domain (we often receive commissions that serve a purpose to challenge systems and services and bring about positive change which stay behind closed doors). We want to write work for us, for audiences, for those we support, but ultimately, we want to catapult our social justice play & work out of the darkness and into the spotlight!

toast
After giving birth, the midwife brings you toast; simple, medium cut, white Hovis that’s done a quick dip in the toaster, barely browned, overly buttered but the best thing Becky’s ever tasted. WARRIOR toast - transition toast - marking the end of pregnancy and the beginning of “Motherhood”. If only she knew what was coming... she’d have asked for the full loaf. It’s a play about Love, Loneliness and finding yourself in a new world. The piece is funny, heart wrenching and ultimately empowering, Toast aims to open conversations and promote hope amongst mothers and their families.

queen of the quack
Ellie's life is upended when her partner leaves her for her closest friend. Amidst her turmoil, some unlikely counsellors emerges from the shadows of her past: and Ellie finds exhilarating liberation in embracing her inner chaos. But as the boundaries of her reality blur, Ellie risks losing more than she bargained for—her job, her sanity, and perhaps her very self. "Queen of the Quack" is a provocative journey of defiance, loss, and the peculiar liberation found at the edge of madness.

we made a pact
Jodie loves scotch eggs, almost as much as she loves her fiancé. The only thing Jodie loves more than a scotch egg is her best mate, Sophie, whom she met at a self-defence class. Bound by their shared experiences, their differences, and a fierce loyalty, Jodie and Sophie made a pact and will always protect each other. However, tension simmers beneath their seemingly unbreakable bond when the pact is broken. Who broke it, and what does this mean for their friendship? "We Made a Pact" is a powerful, energetic, and playful exploration of unconditional love, friendship, and the complexities of dealing with abuse. It hypes you up then hits you where it hurts whilst portraying the true nature of platonic friendship.
