Last staged in London over forty-five years ago, Staircase, with its Pinteresque humour and dark secrets, will feature Benny Young and Andy Arnold as East End barbers whose carefully constructed reality unravels over the course of an evening’s revelations.
Blythe Duff will open the main house season with the world premiere of Just Checking (Wed 2 – Sat 12 Feb), a new one-woman comedy about a very organized life descending into chaos and disorder, written by Karen McLachlan (BBC1s New Tricks & Waterloo Road) with original music from PJ Moore of legendary Glasgow group The Blue Nile.
Visiting company Random Accomplice follow this with another world premiere, Smalltown, the story of nature wreaking her revenge and unleashing all sorts of comedic carnage on a trio of Ayrshire towns. Written by DC Jackson, Johnny McKnight and Douglas Maxwell, with the audience deciding on how the story ends.
