Strangeways at Edinburgh Fringe 2013

Cobbled Haze Club brings its restaging of Strangeways to the King’s Arms Theatre, Salford, from February 24-27.

It’s a darkly comic exploration of loneliness, loss and senility and recently completed a successful run at Edinburgh Fringe, being named Pick of the Fringe.

Leading the cast is Manchester Theatre Awards best fringe performance nominee Stella Grundy, best known as lead singer of 90s rock band Intastella, fresh from touring her self-penned, one-woman show The Rise and Fall of a Northern Star which also ran at the 2014 re:Play festival.

Alongside her is Oliver Hamilton, whose credits include a promenade production of the musical Cabaret. Completing the cast is Roisin Brehony, who has recently worked on an open-air tour of London with Shakespeare’s Comedy of Errors, a Manchester tour of Puss in Boots and performed at Chicago’s Second City.
