9 to 5

From the producer who brought you BREAKING UP IS HARD TO DO

Music & Lyrics by Dolly Parton

Book by Patricia Resnick

30th August – 1st October 2017

Tuesdays – Saturdays 7.30pm
Sundays at 4pm
Extra matinee Saturday 30th September at 3pm

9 To 5 The Musical, with music and lyrics by Dolly Parton and book by Patricia Resnick, is based on the seminal 1980 hit movie. Set in the late 1970s this hilarious story of friendship and revenge in the Rolodex era is outrageous, thought-provoking, and even a little romantic.

Pushed to the boiling point, three female co-workers concoct a plan to get even with the sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical bigot they call their boss. In a hilarious turn of events, Violet, Judy and Doralee live out their wildest fantasy – giving their boss the boot! While Hart remains “otherwise engaged,” the women give their workplace a dream makeover, taking control of the company that had always kept them down.

Hey, a girl can scheme, can’t she?

The production will be directed by Joseph Hodges, with Musical Direction by Oliver Hance, Choreography by Chris Whittaker and Casting by Harry Blumenau.

Brahms Small
By Gail Louw
Directed by John Burrows
Performed by Andrew Wheaton

27th – 29th April  
Friday & Saturday 7.30pm
Sunday 4pm

The story of a 20th century dad, his son & Brahms

Anton does his best but it’s a heartless and tough world out there – what with the Nazis, internment, a loveless marriage and a son he can’t communicate with. Being Brahms is a much better option, a world of soothing lullabies and the lovely Clara Schulmann to drool over, a world where everything seems so much clearer.

Multi award winning playwright Gail Louw blends a universal, heartfelt story about fathers and sons with the wondrous music of Johannes Brahms in this new one-man drama.

Gail Louw has her plays performed throughout the world: Duwayne, (Best New Play at Brighton Fringe), Blonde Poison (Argus Angel, Best of the Fest – San Francisco, South Africa and Sydney Opera House). Miss Dietrich Regrets (Naledi Award). And this is my friend Mr Laurel, with Jeffrey Holland (Edinburgh and tour), Two Sisters (Los Angeles and UK). Most recently is sell out UK tour of The Mitfords.  Oberon have published two collections of Gail’s plays.

Once described by The Stage as an actor of all parts, Andrew Wheaton has played everything from a dead body in a comedy thriller to multi-role ensemble work, and major roles in productions as diverse as Shakespeare and musicals in the West End and New York.

The Government Inspector @ Upstairs at the Gatehouse
Jul 11 @ 7:30 pm – 9:30 pm

presented by irrational theatre

written by Nikolai Gogol

 

As the lights flicker….it’s 1979 in Worsborough Dale.

A letter arrives…

…announcing the arrival of a government inspector, incognito, and ready to root out the town’s rampant corruption, which sends the crooked council chairman and his bureaucrats into a panicked frenzy.

A web of lies and bribery follows in this comic satire of a small town’s utter madness, shadiness and self delusion.

Nobody is free from the taint of ravenous self-interest, bureaucracy, buffoonery and more. Their actions are held up to scorn and ridicule in this hilarious yet moral tale.
