The Changing Room. On the left a blocky colourful illustration of a window with open red drapes looking out on a starry moonlit sky above a blue mountain range. On the right a 30-something white woman slightly turned to the right, with tied back light brown hair, a green flowery dress and a denim jacket.

The Word. On a dark stage a group of young people sit in a huddle. They wear shades of green and are turned to a young woman in the middle who is standing. Some of them point at her.

SOL Gallery. Image by artist Demetrious Vakras of night sky and a naked woman facing away from us, her lower half dissolving into an x-ray type biomechanical image. To her right is a small fire and to her left is a skull.

Ulster American. Three actors on a stage set of a loft type apartment. A woman in a short sleeved lilac jumper sits downstage. Behind her centre stage is a bearded man all in black with a baseball cap backwards and an Oscar in his outstretched hand; he is shouting. A third balding man with glasses stands on the right behind a tan leather couch clasping his hands and watching the man in the centre.

Three white women in their 30s sit on a brown leather couch. On the left is a mousy woman reading a book, on the right a smiley one crocheting a blanket and in the middle a woman in a blue jumper looking troubled and staring at the camera. Share House: The Musical.
