In spring 1991, Mark Clements was appointed Artistic Director. His first season opened with a production of "And A Nightingale Sang". The production of John Godber's "On The Piste", was repeated later in the year, and again in 2001. Godber's work remained a popular part of the programme while Clements' was in charge. During the Clements period the programme included a variety of work, ranging from classics such as "Death of a Salesman", Aphra Behn's "Lucky Chance" and Shakespeare's "Richard III", to contemporary drama such as "Our Boys", "The Rise and Fall of Little Voice" and "Children of a Lesser God", and newly commissioned work such as "Tess of the d'Urbervilles", "Passion Killers" and "Blood Money".
