Dirty Protest...back to the Roundhouse

So we've been invited back to the Roundhouse this month and we're hugely excited about it

The theatre have a whole weekend of political themed works aimed at getting young people engaged in the forthcoming election - and we've been asked to get some great writers together and put on a night of plays with the theme of Counted

As always we are delighted by the writers/directors and actors who are willing to give up their time and offer up their talents to take part - and this time is no different

Jack Thorne - whose film Scouting Book for Boys is currently in cinemas and is lined up to pen the Skins film is writing for us
James Graham (Tory Boyz, The Whiskey Taster, new play The Man opens THE MAN at the Finborough on May 25th as part of the theatre's 30th anniversary.)
Ed Hime (Skins)
Atiha Sen Gupta (What Fatima Did?)
plus writers from the Roundhouse's new writing course (As we write hopefully the talented Joel Horwood is giving them some last minute advice about their first plays

In the directing chair will be Dirty Protest's Mared Swain, Drywrite's Vicky Jones

Actors: Alex Beckett, Kezia Burrows, Phoebe Waller Bridge, Richard Taylor and Adam Redmore

Tickets are ONLY £2 and are on sale now from Roundhouse box office. But we're in the Dorfman Hub which is going to be a snug squeeze and a bit like our original yurt nights, so we're trying to tell people to book now.
I hate to turn people aways on the night - and it's always me who gets stuck with that job

So will be back in a few days with some updates from our writers - as I'm aiming to keep this blog updated
