IT'S MIDSUMMER NIGHT.
NO TIME FOR DREAMING........

Great A'Tuin, the sky turtle swims through space. On it's back stand four elephants, who support the Discworld on their backs. This is a flat world where the field of magic is strong and the line between belief and fantasy is weak....

In the mountain kingdom of Lancre three witches return home from a broomstick tour of the Disc to find the fairies are back - but this time they don't just want your teeth!

Granny Weatherwax and her tiny coven must do battle with the elves, who threaten to take control with their hypnotic glamour.

With a full supporting cast of Wizards, Rude Mechanicals, Morris Dancers and one Orang-utan!

Lots of Hey-nonny-nonny and bood all over the place!

From Tabs Productions the award winning team who brought you 'Wyrd Sisters' & 'Mort'.

From the celebrated author of BLOOD BROTHERS, EDUCATING RITA & STAGS and HENS

Shirley Valentine takes the form of a monologue by a housewife before and after a transforming holiday in Greece.

Shirley’s a middle-aged housewife, who finds herself talking to the wall while she prepares her husband’s chips ‘n’ egg, wondering what happened to her life.

She compares scenes in her current life with what she used to be like and feels she’s stagnated and in a rut. But when her best friend wins an all-expenses-paid vacation to Greece for two, she leaves the drudgery of cooking dinner for her husband, packs her bags and heads for the sun.

The note on the kitchen table reads “Gone to Greece back in two weeks.”

Shirley begins to see the world, and herself in a different light.
