Oscar Martin is the reporter for the Redmond School News. But he isn't doing very well, and neither is the newspaper. It's time for Oscar's lucky break. Suggested level: primary.

Warner Bros Lifetime Achievement Award winner, Oscar Martin, creates a unique dystopian world of chaos, in which Solo the rat fights to survive. In a future ravaged by nuclear wars, the Earth has given birth to an array of new mutated species, which have grown and repopulated the land. But this new world is far from peaceful, and life in it is often short and brutal… Disillusioned with his new life of happiness, Solo risks everything to rediscover what’s truly important in this dangerous and unforgiving world.

The school newspaper is suffering because Oscar isn't a very good reporter or photographer. The situation worsens when a school nearby starts publishing its own newspaper. Can Oscar find a story to save the Redmond School News?

I'm just as good as bloody Pierrepoint. In his small pub in Oldham, Harry is something of a local celebrity. But what's the second-best hangman in England to do on the day they've abolished hanging? Amongst the cub reporters and sycophantic pub regulars, dying to hear Harry's reaction to the news, a peculiar stranger lurks, with a very different motive for his visit. Don't worry. I may have my quirks but I'm not an animal. Or am I? One for the courts to discuss. Martin McDonagh's Hangmen premiered at the Royal Court Theatre, London, in September 2015.
