MARKET HALL, PETERBOROUGH

A sold-out and held-over hit at Stratford’s Here for Now Festival, you are cordially invited to a charming, funny, and completely outrageous evening.

A successful couple aim to shake up their stale marriage by planning a threesome, much like they might plan a dinner party. When things don’t go quite as planned, hilarity ensues.

Very funny and very inappropriate for younger audiences, the play is a well-crafted and heartfelt celebration of love that comes in many meanings and forms. Come one, come all!

Content advisory: Strong and explicit language and mature themes. Recommended audience: 16+

CLYDE’S

by Lynn Nottage

Full of heart and wit, this season-ending staged reading of Clyde’s is a savoury delight that must be experienced for yourself.

From the Pulitzer-winning playwright of Sweat, Clyde’s is a new comedy about a truck-stop sandwich shop that employs people on the edge, people marginalized by the system, all while on a shared quest to create the perfect sandwich.
