SUDS PRESENTS: After Dark

May 15th - 21st; May 23rd

“The dead of night is louder than people think it is."
From frivolous banter to the deepest of secrets, the night is both covering and uncovering. There is a quietness and an absence of urgency that affords a seemingly undefinable quality to nighttime conversation. After Dark is an immersive theatre piece that explores the unique intimacy of the night as a space of interaction. Link to the event here.

Where: The Cellar Theatre, under the Holme Building.
When: Doors open at 7:45 for 8pm.
May 15th - 21st; May 23rd
Ticket booking available here .

SUDS AUDITIONS: Werewolves

Show dates: August 26 - September 5

Werewolves is an interactive, improvised piece based on the party game ‘Werewolves and Villagers.’ Seven representatives from seven noble families meet to discuss the ownership of the land surrounding theirs. It is revealed that two of the characters are Werewolves. The audience vote to kill off characters, in the hope of identifying and then eliminating the Werewolves. Neither actor nor audience knows who the Werewolves are, as they’re randomly assigned nightly.

Actors will be given the opportunity to take hyper-exaggerated, farcical, two-dimensional characters, and through the process of the performance each night, strip them back to reveal the real-life, human facets of their disposition. Actors will improvise their way through seven scenes, fighting for their survival within the game. Auditions will be held between May 18th - 26th at the Cellar Theatre, with callbacks to be held in the days that follow. BOOKING AN AUDITION
