Bouncers(‡) by John Godber
16—25 April 2026
Join Lucky Eric, Ralph, Les and Judd as they take
the audience through a night at the disco in the
90s. Everyone’s there: the excitable DJ, the girls,
the boys, and the late-night video is ready to be
played. But what lurks beneath the glitter and the
empty beer glasses? Hilarious high energy and
very physical, the play has been performed and
studied all over the world. We invite you to join
us for a great night out with a banging 90s
soundtrack. Just remember ‘You gotta look cute
or you get the boot!’
Content warning: Strong language and adult
humour throughout.
God of Carnage(*) by Yazmina Reza
14 —23 May 2026
Set in real time over the course of one afternoon,
two couples sit down to discuss a fight
that occurred between their sons which resulted
in facial injuries. How can they resolve this?
What starts out civil slowly descends into
carnage, resentment and rage which clearly exposes
the cracks in their relationships.
Expressed with plenty of dark humour and subtext,
God of Carnage will let you into their lives,
and show how adults can sometimes act no
better than children.
