Here is a selection of shows that I have picked out as being particularly interesting this coming
season. They feature a mixture of new and cutting-edge work from some of the most exciting
companies and writers in the UK and beyond. You may not have heard of all of them, but
give them a go. I think you'll find it's worth the risk.

I'm A Minger

Lighter Than Air

 

Nicholas Collett in association with the Belgrade Theatre Coventry presents


“Kelly, right, Kelly the bitch decides to have a party on the very same night as my sleepover - the very same night! And I know she’s done it on 
purpose. And she invites everybody - absolutely everybody... except me of course...

I want to die! I’m such a minger!”

After successful outings in London and the Latitude Festival, I’m A Minger tours for the first time – it asks tough questions about the rise in 
suicide as a “life” choice for teenagers today. Follow 14 year old Katie in her battle against the bullies and her search for love.

Devil in the Detail

Devil In the Detail

 

MetaMorpho Theatre Co presents

In a run-down part of town, a devious landlady and her ambitious daughter make ends meet by renting out a small apartment. Not satisfied 
with a single rent, they manage to let the flat to 2 men who never meet, as one works days and one works nights. To maintain the deception 
and keep their double pay, the conniving pair must keep the men apart, and refurbish the room twice a day.

But both men have secrets hidden in the room, secrets that emerge with ghastly consequences when one of the men returns home early 
with a bad hangover.

£14/£12 concessions - Friends Special £10
