Big Sky Town By Amelia Roper

Wed 27 Feb - Sat 1 March

Big Sky Town is the new play from brilliant young playwright Amelia Roper; a St. Martins member who has been developed through the 2005 Creative Ensemble and last years Radicals and Misanthropes.
Big Sky Town is a stunning blend of satire, absurdity, humor, and pathos in a tale concerning a NASA space mission gone horribly wrong and the ridiculous aftermath of cover-up, fraud and human behavior at its most vulnerable and grotesque.

Written by Amelia Roper, Directed by Naomi Edwards.
Set & Costume Design by Tanja Beer, Lighting Design by Lisa Mibus.
Featuring: Rob Gaetano, Hannah Williams, Richie Hallal, Alex Marriott & Andrew Serong

Szentpaly is a new play from extraordinary young theatre maker Bryan Davidson-Blue; a St. Martins member who has been developed through the 2005 Creative Ensemble and last years Radicals and Misanthropes.
Szentpaly tells the story of five characters trapped in a dystopic future existence of obsessive hatred and sexual paralysis. The complexities of survival are investigated as the text confronts issues of masculinity and homophobia. It is edgy, provocative theatre and involves images and language suitable for adult audiences only
