    Everything in Flora's garden is lovely, and would be for Edward too, if it were not for the slight ache in his eyes and the mysterious match-seller at the gate. 'A Slight Ache' was first presented on the BBC Third programme in July 1959. It was first staged at the Arts Theatre, Cambridge, in January 1961, and subsequently at the Criterion Theatre, London.

    'A Song at Twilight' is the first play in the trilogy, 'Suite in Three Keys', in which each play is set in the same Swiss hotel suite. It was written by Coward in 1966, and represents the last of his output for the stage before he died. An earnest moral drama, it concerns an ageing distinguished, petulant, bitchy and truculent writer who has managed to conceal his homosexuality from the world for decades at the cost of warping his talent and cutting off his human sympathies.

    Originally a play for television, transmitted by the BBC in 1962, and now lost, 'A Suitable Case for Treatment' subsequently survived in a 1966 film version entitled 'Morgan'. It explores a familiar Mercer theme, what film-maker Paul Madden called 'social alienation masquerading as madness'. A broad farce in which the main character indulged in 'mad' visions of a retreat to the jungle away from the complexities of his political and personal life, it was innovative in the way it represented Morgan's thoughts and fantasies, his speech patterns and eccentric behaviour.

    It will be a lean Christmas now that the villagers have failed to sell their wares at the market in the town. Glum, they gather in John Mahony's shop-cum-pub to sing songs, drink a little and worry for the season ahead. Among them is Costello, a gregarious man, full of laughter, who has seen the world perhaps a little more than the others and knows how to hold their attention. When a stranger and his wife enter the inn, a peculiar challenge emerges: that he, the stranger, is a better laugher than Costello. Betting begins on this uncanny contest, with stakes so high it becomes a matter of life or death for Costello, for the stranger, and for Mahony in whose house they convive. 'A Thief of a Christmas' was first produced at the Abbey Theatre, Dublin, in December 1985.

    'Summer Evening': A young couple is staying at a foreign hotel. She loses herself in cold, sensual daydreams, while he tries to express his frustrated longing for her and fails. 'The Youth Hostel': Dick, Helen, Bob and Judy are sitting around with nothing to do. Bob, who's never had a girlfriend, asks to see Judy's breasts. This sets off a wildly pornographic series of confrontations in which no one can avoid saying or doing the first thing that comes to mind. 'Mr Frivolous': A man eats breakfast and delivers a brief, dreamy monologue to a lost lover. 'A Thought in Three Parts' was first performed by the Joint Stock Company in London in February 1977.

    The uprooted Carney family live in Coventry, England. Michael, the eldest, is the exception to the cult of violence that prevails; he would live a civilised life. But he has taken the tragic step: thinking to influence his brothers, he has brought them to live with him and his English wife in his Coventry home. And now two more are arriving from Ireland to descend on him. 'A Whistle in the Dark' was first produced by the Theatre Royal, Stratford East, in 1961.

    Liz is a troubled woman, who read a violent story in a newspaper and cannot get it out of her head. This obsession drives away her partner Richard; or maybe he left because she was pregnant with Dan. Years later, when Dan is old enough to look after himself, he ends up looking after his mother, sourcing her drugs so she can escape the thoughts in her head. It is a venture doomed to failure; and his situation is not improved when Richard returns to meet his son. 'A Window: a Triptych' is a play about the cruelty that exists even when there is love. It was first staged at Golden Hillock School, Birmingham, in October 2009.

    The classic wandering-poet archetype of the Expressionist movement receives a dark makeover in Bertolt Brecht's 'Baal'. Brecht's first full-length play portrays the seductions and manipulations of a dissolute poet with an inexplicable appeal to women. Baal descends from a civilised dining room to a hut in the woods, leaving a path of destruction in his wake. First performed in Leipzig in 1923, 'Baal' represents an early, almost pre-political stage in Brecht's career, and shows the playwright experimenting with elements that would become his trademarks, such as the use of song. Even as a young writer, however, Brecht provoked controversy: 'Baal' was immediately shut down by order of the city council of Leipzig.

    First staged at the Royal Court Theatre in 1994, 'Babies' is a warm-hearted, buoyant and very funny comedy about homosexuality and judgement in a working-class setting, centred on a 24 year-old Liverpudlian form tutor at a south-east London comprehensive. Alternately advising and battening down a group of 14 year-olds with a mixture of naivety and Scouse nous, he keeps his homosexuality a secret from the insult-slinging Year Nines. At home, he is flummoxed by his partner's reliance on drugs. Then there is a pupil's birthday party to negotiate: he has to fend off the advances of her rapacious, wisecracking mum, only to find himself entangled with her uncle.

    First produced at the Royal Court Theatre in 1982, Sue Townsend's heartfelt comedy depicts 3 severely agoraphobic women who have left their houses for the first time in years, and made it to a jumble sale organised by their social workers, a young trainee and an ex-agoraphobic volunteer. As the afternoon progresses, the distinction between them and the anxious people they are supposed to be looking after becomes less and less clear; nerves and neuroses run high, and a sensitive portrait of the suffering behind their phobia emerges.

    Upliftingly optimistic, Harvey's play about two teenage boys falling in love refuses melodramatic clichés to offer a story bright with sensitivity, pathos and wit. Sixteen-year-old Jaime lives with his mum Sandra and her younger boyfriend in a low-rise block of flats in Thamesmead, London. Living next door is the rowdy Leah, who has been expelled from school and spends her days sunning herself and listening to Mama Cass. And on the other side is Ste, also sixteen. His father's anger means that he often hides out in Jaime and Sandra's flat, spending the night there to escape being beaten. Ste and Jaime start off top-and-tailing in Jaime's bed, since there's nowhere else to sleep, and Harvey unfolds their tentative, awkward relationship with delicacy and with joy. The crisply authentic dialogue darts between aching, soul-searching emotion and sharp winning comedy, perfectly capturing the thrill of a first love. 'Beautiful Thing' was first performed in 1993 at the Bush Theatre, London.

    First staged at the Almeida in 2011, 'Becky Shaw' is an amusing and cleverly constructed comedy about ambition, the cost of being truthful and the perils of a blind date. The fast and funny dialogue navigates between five distinctively perverse and disingenuously dysfunctional characters. From the moment that Becky arrives overdressed for her blind date with straight-talking Max, it is clear the evening won't go to plan. In the immediate fallout, Becky becomes an object of devotion for her boss Andrew, who appears to have a taste for vulnerable women. In turn Andrew's wife Suzanna turns to her step-brother Max for comfort, and their mutual desire begins to resurface. Gina Gionfriddo's masterful play is a biting American comedy with sharp, witty dialogue and a carefully crafted story arc. Character-driven, 'Becky Shaw' is a comic tale of tangled love lives and a subtle but acerbic comedy of manners.

    'Bent', premiered in 1979 at London's Royal Court Theatre, is a shattering tragedy about the treatment of homosexual men under the Nazi regime; its raw, harrowing depiction of extreme persecution and punishment lifted briefly by human connection has become a theatrical classic. The play follows Max, who lives in Berlin with his partner Rudy, a dancer. On one cocaine-fuelled night he brings home a stranger, blond and into S&M, but wakes in the morning to find they have to get out of the city and disappear. Unable to get over the border and out of Germany, Max and Rudy are arrested and put on a train to Dachau. Max's morality, affection and humanity are pressed to terrible extremes, as Sherman provides an account of defiance and courage amidst unimaginable oppression.

    For his whole adult life, David Hare has been visiting the city which so many young people regard as the most exciting in Europe. But there's something in Berlin's elusive character that makes him feel he's always missing the point. Now, to celebrate the twentieth anniversary of the reunification, he offers a meditation about Germany's restored capital - both what it represents in European history, and the peculiar part it has played in his own life. 'Berlin' premiered at the National Theatre, London, in February 2009.

    'Epitaph for George Dillon', in which a mediocre artist is planted into the weed patch of petite bourgeois suburbia, absorbs and fascinates because it is a realistic modern drama which is not bourgeois in its underlying assumptions. It is like a familiar building caught at an angle which suddenly makes it look like something never seen before. 'Epitaph for George Dillon' premiered at the Royal Court Theatre, London, in 1958.

    It is the day of the Epsom Derby and Britain is gripped by racing fever. At Epsom Downs Racecourse, a magnificent cross-section of society gathers to watch the famous Derby race in which Lester Piggot rode 'The Minstrel' to a dramatic, photo-finish victory. Described by the Guardian as 'An exuberant documentary about a secular English Festival', 'Epsom Downs' was commissioned and first performed by Joint Stock theatre company at the Roundhouse, London, in 1977, directed by Max Stafford Clark.

    A dissident is locked up in an asylum. If he accepts that he was ill and has been cured, he will be released. He refuses. Sharing his cell is a real lunatic who believes himself to be surrounded by an orchestra. As the dissident's son begs his father to free himself with a lie, Tom Stoppard's darkly funny and provocative play asks if denying the truth is a price worth paying for liberty. This premiered at the Festival Hall, London, in July 1977.

    Death summons a man to the reckoning of his life, and his journey towards judgement makes up the matter of one of the best surviving examples of morality plays. Everyman, the central character of the play, is not a person but a place-holder representing all of mankind. As he converses with Knowledge, Good Deeds, Beauty and Goods, striving to secure a favourable account of his time on earth in order to reach everlasting life, a dramatic allegory is woven about the brevity of life and the necessity of living it well. The play is exceptional in its genre for this narrow focus on the last phase of life, and conveys its message with awe-inspiring seriousness.
