Since that little gem of a show, they went on to produce The Surrendered Wife Show. This became The Reconditioned Wife Show for reasons they can't face explaining (lawsuits, the near loss of both Clare's house and her dad, an ex-policeman, who can put the fear of god into anyone. Particularly Clare) The show went to Edinburgh (Clare flew, Amanda got the train, and Adam drove up with his dad and the set in his dad's van) It received 4 star reviews, and seven years down the road Adam is still having to be eternally grateful to his dad and make him endless cups of tea.

Great news greeted them on their return home from Edinburgh. They were asked to be resident theatre company at New Greenham Arts (NGA) It is situated on the legendary Greenham Common, which has become an SSSI, full of burgeoning talent. At last, a secure and inspiring home from which to develop their work. Plested and Brown are further inspired by the proximity of the wonderful Tandoori restaurant next door (Hi to Taher and the boys! Your chicken madras rocks. 01635 552828. They now deliver.) From Greenham, they booked and ran their first national tour of The Reconditioned Wife Show. It was a great success, and the start of some lasting relationships with Arts venues around the country.

Following this, they threw themselves into rehearsals for their third show, Flamingo Flamingo Flamingo, which they took to Edinburgh which again went down a storm and made front page of the Scotsman. With Arts Council funding behind them they set off on a national tour; with sell-out shows and great reviews  Flamingo Flamingo Flamingo proved a real winner. They've since represented England with the show in the South Korean International Festival of Theatre.

Hot Pursuit is Plested and Brown's fourth show. It was created after an initial research and development period working with artists David Sant (Peepolykus), Toby Wilsher (Ex -Trestle), and Phelim McDermott (Improbable). It previewed at Edinburgh to sell-out audiences before being packed on a plane to be apart of HIGH FEST -The International Theatre Festival in Armenia.

Since then, Hot Pursuit has had three national tours in the UK, and has toured New Zealand (north and south island) which included taking part in the Best of British festival in Auckland (see P and B go international).

Minor Spectacular, Plested and Brown’s fifth show saw a development in the way the company create their shows.  During a series of open evenings called ‘Mucking about with Plested and Brown’ at the Corn Exchange, the company performed bits of scenes, and talked through ideas with audiences who in turn were invited to offer feedback and ideas.  The show previewed at the Edinburgh Festival 2007, was a huge hit and subsequently toured nationally in autumn 2007 and spring 2008.
