Jump In: Double Trouble
A modern day reworking of Shakespeare’s “Comedy of Errors”. This fast paced, slapstick romp uses the classic idea of twins and mistaken identity, but this time there are two sets of twins! Twice the confusion, twice the fun.
Anna and her servant are strangers in a very strange town. They’ve never been here before and yet people keep offering to cook them dinner, give them presents and asking them for money that they apparently owe. All they want to do is get home but this proves to be easier said than done.
Double Trouble by Troublemaker Theatre Company
Performed by Norden Lights H (Tues 27 Mar) and Norden Lights F (Thur 29 Mar)

Testosterone
Kit is in an amusing and unique position, having transitioned from female to male in his early thirties, he has experienced adult life on both sides of the gender fence.
When he enters a male gym changing room for the first time he's confronted by masculinity in all its forms - the good, the bad and the ugly.
This refreshingly honest and irreverent physical theatre comedy by critically acclaimed Rhum and Clay and darkly comic theatre writer and director Kit Redstone, they explore the epic path that we all have to take when forging an identity.
WHY? 'Multi-layered and gripping' Lyn Gardner
Suitable for ages 16+ years (contains nudity).
