Aeneas Faversham Forever

World Premiere
"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

Josie Long All of the Planet's Wonders (shown in detail)
Josie Long
World Premiere
Hopefully this show will be so big and so small that you'll need a telescope and a microscope. At different times. And full of intrigue like a museum of hand-annotated objects in glass-topped drawers collected by a victorian madman... Barry award nominee 2008 "Completely brilliant" Metro "Delightful" List
