Night Light @ Upstairs at the Gatehouse
May 30 @ 7:30 pm – 8:45 pm

Night Light is a 1-hour, 3-act, fast-paced, conversational comedy. 3 children in their mid-20s put off growing up until they’re forced to let go of each other’s hands and pass on the night light.

Our Irish duo Robyn and Rian take on the harsh realities of living in central London, Randy attempts to write his way out of his situation, and Laura tries to teach them all there is more to life than nerf gun fights, in-jokes and a mattress that wasn’t built for three.

Directed by Tom Chandler (Juliet & Romeo).

About Giggle Riot Theatre:

Founded in 2021 by Tom Chandler, Tom Inman and Maeve O’Haire in response to a stunted industry and a world in desperate need of a few good laughs. The core formed from alumni of The American Academy of Dramatic Arts – NYC.

David Newton was voted best Jazz Pianist in the British Jazz awards for the thirteenth time in 2014 and was made a Fellow of Leeds College of Music in 2003. His reputation as an accompanist is unparalleled, and he has featured on numerous recordings since the mid-80s.
