Theatre Audience Podcast

Out Of Season:
The band is back in town, but Michael, Chris, and Dev are no longer in their twenties. Returning to Ibiza and the hotel where it all began thirty years ago, Neil D’Souza's razor-sharp comedy, Out Of Season, explores the gulf between past aspirations and present realities. As they trip down memory lane, Holly and Amy arrive, down-to-earth enough to save our feckless heroes from humiliating themselves. Written by Neil D’Souza and directed by Alice Hamilton, this comedy picks apart how we come to terms with the past and face the future.
Lady Windermere’s Fan:
Oscar Wilde's irreverent comedy, Lady Windermere’s Fan, follows the young Lady Windermere as jealousy over her husband's apparent interest in a mysterious older woman threatens to ruin lives. Set in the upper-class English society of the late Victorian era, the play satirises the hypocrisy of outwardly strict moral rules. With Scarlett Archer as Lady Windermere, George Banks as Lord Windermere, and Olivia Hallinan as Mrs Erlynne, this production promises dazzling period costume, live foley, and an immersive experience.
I Just Like You | a gay myth:
Written and directed by Zachary Wilcox, I Just Like You | a gay myth explores the complexities of gay dating through the intimate story of Pat and Leo. Pat, searching for something deeper, and Leo, who's developed an allergy to intimacy, find themselves unable to resist each other. Following a sold-out Edinburgh run, this play, long-listed for prestigious awards, marks Wilcox's London debut and stars Chandler James and Conor Mainwaring.
The Big Life:
Set in 1950s London, The Big Life follows four men from the West Indies—Ferdy, Bernie, Dennis, and Lennie—who arrive with high expectations and aspirations. Eager to make successes of themselves, they decide to forswear wine and women for three years to focus on their future. However, the women they meet—Sybil, Mary, Zulieka, and Kathy—have different ideas. This joyful Ska musical, blending Shakespeare’s Love’s Labour’s Lost with the Windrush generation, returns to the stage 20 years after its Stratford East premiere.
Wild About You Interview:
Darren interviews Brian Spector, producer of the brand new musical Wild About You in a concert premiere starring Eric McCormack, Rachel Tucker, and Oliver Tompsett.
