Backbone
By Louis Turner

Secrets, lies, evidence… and Pamela.

Cast: Henry Pettigrew (Quiz) as A, and Ashley Zhangazha (The Country Wife) as B.

Back in March we started our Five Day Plays; writers were invited to submit a play they'd written, the only rules being that the play could not exceed 10 pages and it had to match our weekly brief. After ten weeks, over 300 entries and ten winners, the series came to an end. A group of professional actors working directed by our own Hannah Hogg with Dale Rooks, have recorded some of the winning entries as audio plays for you to enjoy. All of the winning plays are available to read on the CFT website.

Blue Moon
By David Kinder

Cast: Lucy Briers (Forty Years On, Young Chekhov) as Anushka, and Keir Charles (Quiz) as Simon.
