Jim Cartwright’s award-winning masterpiece invites you to join the inhabitants of a derelict northern road on an unforgettable journey.   It’s 1986. Your rumbustious chaperone Scullery guides you down the road, picking up the raucous and the ready for it, as ‘owt can happen tonight’. From dusk till dawn, the hopelessly hilarious and divinely desperate laugh, sing, dance and eat chips – all searching for something different.  Shockingly relevant to our lives today, the play’s visceral, eloquent poetry paints a tough world with tenderness. 
Featuring Lucy Beaumont, Shobna Gulati, Johnny Vegas, and with special guest Sir Tom Courtenay on film.

The year is 1943 and the Allies are determined to break Hitler's grip on occupied Europe, and plan an all-out assault on Sicily; but they face an impossible challenge, how to protect a massive invasion force from potential massacre. It falls to two remarkable intelligence officers, Ewen Montagu and Charles Cholmondeley  to dream up the most inspired and improbable disinformation strategy of the war, centered on the most unlikely of secret agents: a dead man. Operation Mincemeat is the extraordinary and true story of an idea that helped to alter the course of the war. The show is described as a triumphant blend of  spy thriller, farce, intricate plotting, deceptively simple characterizations, terrific music and deliciously energetic performances.
