Haste Theatre's BEYOND CRAGPORTH ROCK Set for Marlowe Studio, Canterbury

AWARD-winning Haste Theatre bring the black comedy Beyond Cragporth Rock to The Marlowe Studio, Canterbury, later this month (June).

Six sisters are driven to a ramshackle cottage on the edge of an eroding cliff. Beyond the four walls lies a nightmarish, futuristic world plunged into dystopia by economic crisis. Afraid of the outside, the sisters live in constant fear of faceless foes and unspecified attacks. Here we find them 10 years later, fresh risen from their own deaths to tell their bizarre, back-to-front story.

The audience are taken on a rollercoaster ride of bleak laughs and horror in this tale of humdrum family life put under intolerable pressure. With food stocks running low and tensions rising, the play ticks away to a tense finale.

Beyond Cragporth Rock is at The Marlowe Studio at 8pm on Tuesday 25 and Friday 26 June. Tickets, priced £12 (concessions available; booking fee applies) are from the Box Office on 01227 787787 or marlowetheatre.com.
