Bank Robbery by Mischief Theatre
Written by Mischief Theatre founders Henry Lewis, Jonathan Sayer and Henry Shields, The Comedy About a Bank Robbery gives you a grouping of incompetent thieves as they try to steal a rare diamond from Minneapolis City Bank during the summer of 1958 – very much a homage to American screwball cops and robbers comedies

Mr Iger - Paul Egerton
Pieces by Hywel John
A modern fable of an idyllic childhood shattered by grief, and the confused, desperate and dangerous attempts we make to learn how to live again. ... But as the three of them return to the isolated home on the edge of a forest, their collective grief triggers a tragic attempt to remember, repair and recreate the past.
Bea – Isabel Johnson
Jackie – Sheani Cummins
Sophie - Lucy Woods
Stags and Hens by Willy Russell
The play is set in a trashy 1970s disco in Liverpool, England. The action is mainly in the gents and women's toilets of the disco where both Linda (The Bride) and Dave (The Groom) have decided to hold their stags and hens nights, not knowing that their other half is at the same place. Everything is going great until Linda bumps into her first true love Peter outside the ladies loo.
