When a global oil crisis overshadows their Mexican honeymoon, two newlyweds discover how far they’ll go to defend their way of life. Absurdly inventive comic theatre from Total Theatre Award nominees Shams. ‘A playful, poetic gem.’ Times www.shamstheatre.org.uk

A man and a woman journey together through the night. Memories fade, stories expand, music seeps in, a grainy black and white film runs on. Correspondence is a travelogue of the heart which nods to classic film noir, winks to French romantics and pouts at surrealist art. "Absolutely compelling theatre." The Guardian

"Think 'A Bit of Fry and Laurie' with a dash of 'Ripping Yarns' and a twist of 'Big Train'. Grab the chance to see the Penny Dreadfuls live" - The Guardian

The award-winning Penny Dreadfuls - Humphrey Ker, David Reed and Thom Tuck - present a brand new comedy for 2008.

A dastardly plot is afoot, one that could threaten the Empire. Innocent children's author Rufus Hambleden is suddenly thrown into a web of suspicion, embezzlement, secret societies and horrifying murder across Victorian London.

"Unrivalled imagination, impeccable comic timing. Hilarious." ***** Three Weeks

The world's first homo-erectus ventriloquist, and a talking monkey, explain evolution. Thankfully, in the interest of entertainment, they've included songs, jokes, and gratuitous nudity.

Winner of the prestigious Barry award 2008.
