Woking from 21 – 26 March and follows the lives of the lovably hopeless characters on a downtown New
York street. Performed by a cast of hugely talented performers and puppets, this show is full of rudeness,
bad behaviour and political incorrectness - it promises to be a hilarious experience you won’t forget! Not
suitable for under 12s.
For those who like a bit of drama in their lives, they will not be disappointed this season. From 22 – 26
February, following an eagerly anticipated season at the National Theatre, comes Shakespeare’s Hamlet.
