A play by one of Britain's best-selling writers Bazaar and Rummage
brings together a neurotic do-gooder, a trainee social worker and
three agoraphobics who have been persuaded to venture out of their
homes to run a jumble sale. "As a study of agoraphobia, Bazaar and
Rummage...is written with great verve, style and wit." (Benedict
Nightingale); Set in an adult literacy class where the student's fear
of ignorance is as much of a handicap as their inability to read,
Groping for Words is a "close up of the social scrap-heap, written in
a fine vein of comic indignation and giving a voice to people whose
lives are mainly spent in queues and waiting rooms." (Irving Wardle,
The Times); Womberang shows free spirit Rita Onions bringing joy and
anarchy to the grim waiting-room of a gynaecology clinic. "A daydream
of mastered fear" (New Society)
