People Show 111: Slide Show

Time: 70min. No interval. 2 on stage, 4 on road.
People Show 118: Bus Show
We want to invite you on a trip; on a very unique bus ride. A surreal and frightening journey that summons up songs, stories and half forgotten anecdotes from a family of misfits who haven’t got of the road for forty years. This dark musical comedy is delightfully quirky, deeply engaging and completely life-affirming.
Time: 20min. No interval. 3 on stage, 4 on road.
