Terry Pratchett's Men at Arms

Join us for this amateur production of Terry Pratchett’s Men at Arms adapted for stage by Stephen Briggs.

Scarcely a year on from the events of Guards! Guards!, the Ankh-Morpork City Night Watch find their services are once more needed to tackle a threat to their city. A threat at least as deadly as a 60-foot dragon, but mechanical and heartless to boot. It kills without compunction. It is the first gun on the Discworld.

The original Watch - Captain Vimes, Sergeant Colon, Corporal Carrot and Corporal Nobbs - are joined by some new recruits, selected to reflect the city's ethnic make-up - Lance-Constable Cuddy (a dwarf), Detritus (a troll) and Angua (a w..., well, best to find out for yourself)..

A Rose Appears: Test Phase
Jun
2
4:30 PM16:30

A Rose Appears: Test Phase

A shadowy organisation hires three scientists to experiment with an extra-terrestrial element which might hold the key to teleportation. When one of them is unexpectedly killed by the machine, it is up to her colleagues to solve the puzzle – or face the consequences of failure. Their employer demands more human testing, but will their consciences allow it? And what will they discover if they continue to tug at the curtain of the known universe?

 As the research progresses, essential boundaries - between knowledge and faith, reality and delusion, reason and instinct - become terrifyingly thin.

 

This work-in-progress storytelling event provides a first look at an original sci-fi horror story by Dave Robb (The Devil in the Belfry), directed by Flavia D’Avila (The Devil in the Belfry, The Rotting Hart).

 Content warnings: references to mental illness, violence, discriminatory language, drug use.
