All of them, Dead - 11th July

In a global pandemic caused by infected meat, two boys find they're much less alone than they thought.

All Of Them, Dead is a play about being young, gay and working-class in the middle of nowhere. It’s about the things that go unsaid, it’s about two boys holding hands, it’s about clinging together as the world changes around you. And it’s about meat falling from the sky (no, really).

Perfect for fans of Heartstopper and The Day Of The Triffids, All Of Them, Dead is a sharp, funny and touching q***r love story for the end of the world.

Notice regarding our car park

A section of the boundary wall in our car park has collapsed. To ensure the safety of our neighbours and allow for repairs, we’ve temporarily fenced off the affected area and restricted other sections of the car park.

If you are due to visit us over the next few days we kindly ask you to:

Avoid bringing a car if possible, or car share to reduce the number of vehicles.

Allow extra time on your journey to find suitable parking off site if the car park is full on arrival.

Thank you for your understanding.
