Park Theatre’s latest double bill presents two recent works from an emerging writer, both centring average queer London lives, and the lengths we’ll go to to present the versions of ourselves we want the world to see. Both are somewhat overblown in their execution, but at their best they are imaginatively conceived, wryly observational slices of life.
SH Productions and telling tales have announced the cast for the double bill of Paul Bradshaw’s tell me straight and the world premiere of aggy. Learn more here!

Was it Professor Plum in the library with the dagger? To many of us, the board game Cluedo is a family staple, but director Mark Bell’s play takes more of its influence from the 1985 American film Clue. The play retains the characters, weapons and location of a spooky manor house and turn it into a pacey farce that both amuses and frustrates.
Next month, the Belgrade Theatre welcomes a hilarious new whodunnit spoof to its Main Stage. Cluedo is based on the classic board game of the same name, and the 1985 film Clue, and runs from Mon 14 – Sat 19 March, starring EastEnders and Coronation Street legend Michelle Collins as Miss Scarlett.
The Show Must Go Online will present an event on Monday 1 June from 7.30pm to 9.30pm.
