Written by Ben Elton Directed by Siobhan Vincent 4 – 20 July

Described as “Bloodcurdlingly funny” and awarded the 1998 Olivier Award, this comedy is a rollercoaster ride that is thriller, satire and social commentary. Bruce Delamitri, a Tarantino-esque Hollywood film Director, is preparing for the Oscars. There follows an action packed comedy that raises the ugly aspects of the movie industry, touches upon the #metoo debate, and queries the effect of violence in film upon impressionable minds. Faced with the monster he creates, who is to take responsibility? Elton deliberately intertwines his own commentary with Delamitri’s questionable ethics and we, as voyeurs, do not walk away unscathed. It is intellectual and stimulating entertainment at its best. Hold onto your hats, Ladies and Gents, it is one wild ride!

Caution: sexual references, coarse language, violent and adult themes.
