Theatre Guide Dog: Week 8

The basic task of theatre in the term to come is to concentrate its effort on SOCIALIST MODERNIZATION. Under the leadership of THE THEATRE GUIDE DOG of The Tab THESPIANS OF ALL NATIONALITIES will continue to adhere to the AMATEUR DRAMATISTS’ DEMOCRATIC UNION and steadily improve theatrical institutions, develop theatrical acuity, improve the techies’ levels of competency and work hard and self-reliantly to increase levels of Interesting Theatre Not Ripped Off From the West End and decrease levels of Weird Incestuous University Theatre step by step to turn Cambridge into a socialist university town with a high level of culture.*

The 24 Hour Plays 28th November only

Five writers, five directors, five groups of five actors, all in 24 hours, blah blah blah. What you’re really there for is to witness the unhappiness of twenty-five exhausted, overworked and haggard actors from the warmth of your seat. (Yours truly included.)

ADC, 11pm £5-6

Frozen 29th November – 3rd December

Some Seriously Dark Shit about serial-killing pedophiles. The latter paradoxically played by the wonderful MAX UPTON though, so there’s balance in everything.

Corpus Playroom, 7pm £5-6

Nonsense 29th November – 3rd December

An hour of pure distilled Novellie, for those with the stomachs to hold their stand-up comedy properly.

Corpus Playroom, 9.30pm £5-6

Highlight 30th November – 3rd December

Tamara Micner writes more stuff. But this time with fewer reanimated corpses, vampires, and bitches knocked-up by dem sexy baron-poets.

ADC, 11pm £4-6

Rustly Brown Trousers 4th December only

No one has the remotest idea what this is, but it’s free. And claims we gave it a good review in the past. And takes place near food.

Tatties, 1pm Free
