London's Finborough Theatre, now in its 35th year, has announced its autumn season.

The sesason begins with the pairing of the world première of My Eyes Went Dark by Matthew Wilkinson with the European première of This Heaven by new Aboriginal Australian writer Nakkiah Lui.

The Sweethearts by Sarah Page, originally seen at the Finborough as a staged reading last year, will have its first fully-staged production alongside Horniman's Choice, which brings together four rediscovered one-act plays from the Manchester School, based at Annie Horniman's Gaiety Theatre in Manchester in the early twentieth century, by Harold Brighouse, Stanley Houghton and Allan Monkhouse.

Another rediscovery is Treasure by David Pinski, a classic of Yiddish theatre receiving its UK UK première after 110 years in an adaptation by Colin Chambers.

Finally, Vibrant 2015—A Festival Of Finborough Playwrights returns for its seventh year with twelve staged readings of new plays.
