We're family. We don't have to like each other.Things are never easy for Ellis when the family gets together. A dad who doesn't get him, a cousin who can do no wrong, a (not so passive) aggressive grandma, his dad's latest intolerable girlfriend and a grandpa in an urn are just some of the things Ellis has to contend with. When it begins to become tradition at these occasions for true feelings to be unearthed, is it finally time for Ellis to cut ties?Set in the back room of a social club, away from the main action, the play journeys us through a wake, a wedding and a christening, and lifts the lid on the tensions behind every family ritual. Many things change over the years but something that will always remain is the same cold buffet. Elijah Young's epic comedy The Cold Buffet follows the McCarthy family over five years of life, death and love. It's a delicious North East family saga laced with dry humour and a good dose of interpersonal tension.This edition was published to coincide with the world premiere at Newcastle's Live Theatre, in October 2023.
Step by step, we shall follow the prophet Elijah through God's holy terrain, diligently dissecting divine truths along the awe-inspiring highway toward glory. We shall shake the ground of religion and rattle the cage of restraint. God's intent is to set us free. But are you inclined to follow, no matter the cost? In this informative and approachable guide, Craig Polenz carefully examines each aspect of Elijah's life and explains its relevance in terms we can easily understand today. Whether it is responding to God's initial call, pulling oneself out of the pit of despair and self-pity, or surviving the whirlwind of everyday living, there are valuable lessons to be gleaned from the prophet. It is only when we set aside everything else to seek God wholeheartedly that we can become His inspired and divinely-empowered agents of change. In an expert blend of studious research and humor, Craig shows readers that The Chronicles of Elijah are the perfect road map for our Christian journey.
