🎭 Double the Drama, Double the Fun! 🎭

Get ready for a spectacular theatre experience this August with Two One-Act Plays—a night of captivating storytelling and unforgettable performances!

Dr Fibjoy’s Amazing Theatrical Exclusion, directed by Jonathan Sharp, will take you on a whimsical ride through energetic skits and vibrant storytelling. Led by the charismatic Dr Fibjoy, this show is packed with physical comedy, music, and audience interaction. It’s a celebration of creativity that promises laughter, wonder, and a unique theatrical adventure.

Then, prepare for a darkly funny and emotionally charged ride with Demise: A Series of Tragic Tales, directed by Nicky Fernandes. Written by Natasha Daly, this compelling collection of four short plays spans strikingly different decades and settings. Each tale weaves sharp wit, raw emotion, and unexpected twists into vivid theatrical moments. From charming hitmen to plane crash survivors, existential spirals to dangerous dates, Demise dives into the complexities of human nature with biting humour and devastating honesty.
WARNING – Contains adult themes and discussions of death.

📅 Performances: 15th–31st August with Friday and Saturday night performances and Sunday matinees.

Don’t miss this incredible double bill that will have you laughing, gasping, and reflecting.
