Photo Flash: SECRETS At The Cock Tavern Theatre

By:

We all have secrets. Does that make us all liars?  Or just actors, playing parts but hiding the truth?  Devised by eight actors, whose true-life secrets have been woven together to create an intimate story; SECRETS is an explosive new play, opening at the c*ckTavern Theatre on November 17.  It dissolves the barrier between fact and fiction, exploring why we keep secrets, what happens when we decide to disclose them and the nature of secrecy itself.

Theatre company Flexible Productions aims to produce honest theatre with the power to touch the audience. Focussing on autobiographically-based writing that explores the actors’ own experiences, the company seeks to open up a little-known area and to create fluid, meaningful productions.

Dramaturg Hamish MacDougall is the Literary Manager at The c*ckTavern Theatre.  Writing credits include Deptford Tales (National Youth Theatre) and Urban Chic Saved My Life (Cockpit Theatre).
