The Bush Theatre of London has announced its new season. 

From September 15 to October 16, the Bush Theatre will present Annie Baker's THE ALIENS.  The play tells of "professional dropouts" KJ and Jasper and the effect that they have on seventeen year old Evan, who works at the café where they spend their days.  The play "puts modern day America under the microscope to ask what happened to the generation who never grew up," the Bush Theatre states.  The production will be directed by Peter Gill.

From January 12 to February 19, the Bush Theatre will present John Donnelly's THE KNOWLEDGE.  The play follows Zoe, a young teacher struggling with life while teaching in a failing school.  The production will be directed by Charlotte Gwinner. 

From January 19 to February 19, the Bush Theatre will present Steve Waters's LITTLE PLATOONS.  The play follows a group of parents who decide to start their own "free school" for their children.  The production will be directed by Nathan Curry.  LITTLE PLATOONS and THE KNOWLEDGE will be presented in repertory and will be presented along with discussions on education in today's Britain.

From February 25 to March 26, the Bush Theatre will present Deirdre Kinahan's MOMENT.  The play tells of a family whose son, who murdered a child, returns home after being released from prison.  The production will be directed by David Horan.
