ArtsGroupie presents HOTEL.
Part of Shiny New Festival 2016
Wednesday 20 July at 7 pm. Tickets available from the Lantern Theatre for £10.50 or £8.50 (concessions).
If only the walls of a hotel room could talk.
One room, three separate stories, strangers each with a tale to tell.
Dark comedy ‘HOTEL’ will take the audience behind the ‘do not disturb’;
- A couple who celebrate their anniversary, with a difference.
- A clown who may be happy on the outside but what’s going on behind that painted smile?
- A lady who checks in, to audio record a shocking confession.
ArtsGroupie brings to the stage these surreal fables, written and directed by John Maguire (‘BRUISE’, ‘WEAVE’, ‘PORNOVISION’) and co-directed by Moira Kenny from The Sound Agents (‘The Curious Disappearance of Mister Foo’).
