The Key Workers Cycle

If the Tube ground to a halt . . . If the supermarket shelves emptied . . . If your bins overflowed . . . Would it feel like something, or someone, was missing? A chorus of delivery drivers singing through the night, a support worker haunted by visions of the women who depend on her, a funeral director showing off his dab hand with a pair of clippers. In an echo of the Medieval Mystery Plays – which brought together communities of craftsmen and merchants to act out the stories of famous miracles – The Key Workers Cycle presents a cycle of nine short plays celebrating the humour, the hope and the stories of those who keep our daily lives running.
