Two Englishmen, out of place, out of time and dangerously low on vodka...

Friends John and Davvo are reunited in the same dilapidated ex-Soviet city where they worked together as teachers a decade before. While John teeters on the brink of comfortable marriage, best man Davvo has chosen a life of free-wheeling debauchery. But they find the city where their friendship blossomed has been transformed from romantic decay to soulless conformity. And it’s not just the city that’s changed in the intervening years...

Over the course of an evening, they probe each others’ insecurities, finally agreeing to spend a lost weekend together, during which their friendship is tested to crisis point.

Upcoming Readings

Laurel and Hardy Go to Heaven by Paul Auster

This early work by Paul Auster is a highly dark and deeply funny slapstick pastiche of Beckett's Waiting For Godot. Laurel and Hardy, builders of walls, need to finish their work before dusk; their very existence seems to depend on it.

Director: Lucas Beerekamp

Staged Reading, 22 May 2012
Mezrab doors open at 7:30, performance at 8:00pm.

The God of Hell by Sam Shephard

Frank and Emma are American dairy farmers, alone in the mid west. Nothing ever happens. Nothing has happened for years. But now there's a mysterious man hiding in their basement and a government official has come knocking at the door.

Director: Agnesz Hoekstra

Staged Reading, 12 June 2012
Mezrab doors open at 7:30, performance at 8:00pm.
