Doorways

Synopsis

Doorways is a story about a week in the life of two English Pub Doormen, one who is innocently on a path to find his masculinity, the other holds a dark secret and is on the edge of losing his mind.

Inspired by our writer ‘working the doors’ for over 10 years, Doorways is a story about Craig, a life-long bouncer, it’s all he knows. He is also on a path of self-destruction and years of abuse are coming back to haunt him in a week from hell. He is questioning his own sanity and own reality. The last thing he needs to be is a student.

The Student is on a path of self-discovery. He is searching for his masculinity. But he will find many answers to questions he didn’t need to know; defining who he is as a man as Craig takes him on a ride that eventually descends into the depths of human depravity.

Will Craig break him? or will he rescue Craig’s heart?

Savage House Savage House

Year: 2026

England, 18th Century. The Savages are at their lowest: they despise each other, their house is falling apart, and they are disliked in polite society - sleeping with their servants, and selling off jewellery to keep their gambling and drinking going. Oh, and Chauncey Savage’s foot might be rotting off. This is until they are set to be visited by higher ranking nobleman. The honour gives them a renewed energy to get new outfits, polish their silver, and hire new help to make sure the House of Savage is looking as impressive as possible.
