John Mortimer’s adaptation of Dickens’s masterpiece will enchant children and adults alike and yet retains the political incision with which Dickens castigated society. This moral parable with all the much-loved characters – miserly Scrooge, the loving Cratchits and faithful nephew Fred - is boisterous, sentimental and compassionate family entertainment.

Scrooge returns home to his cheerless rooms and a series of supernatural experiences begins. He undergoes a profound experience of redemption over the course of a Christmas Eve as the ghosts of Christmas past, present and future determine that, if he doesn’t change his ways, he will end up walking the earth forever as an invisible and lonely ghost himself.

A new hope is born and the 18th century is happily exploding, sometimes very messily, with cake, coffee and commerce. London smugly calls itself the centre of the artistic world and its rising star, woman playwright, Carrie Lyndon, accepts a commission to write a play for regional theatre, but is it really her who arrives in Gloucester to fulfil the commission? The powers of government are now reaching far into the countryside and pretty soon it begins to bite back: riots, sit-ins and boycotts abound, and starvation and persecution soon follow. The country is in uproar and the Militia is called in. The role of the theatre and of the women within it are called into question. Does anyone really care if the show goes on or not and, if so, why?

You’re lost: strayed from the path. Night is setting in. Moon has slipped away. You might happen on a house, deep in a forest. You might be relieved you’d found it. Dinner is being served; won’t you take your place?

The Family promises a world of escape which mixes powerful narrative, vibrant spectacle, fantasy, the supernatural, horror and cabaret. Poetry and text by Annamaria Murphy and live music by Rogue Theatre’s newest creation, theatre band, The Thieves.

Welcome to Beaumont - a town of strong family values but where dance is considered the work of the devil. Newcomer Ren soon finds himself at odds with the powerful local minister, Reverend Moore but not his beautiful daughter Ariel.

With classic tracks and foot tapping numbers like the title track, “Lets hear it for the boy” and “Holding out for a hero” you will love this feel-good show.

This is a real ‘Enchanted Musical’. Fantasy comes face to face with the hard reality of senior school in a pop musical adventure.  In the fairy tale world princes are charming and Cinderella’s stepsisters are wicked but when the sisters find a portal into another world the fantasy world starts to crumble.  Woodsman, who desperately wants to be a hero, offers to cross over into reality in order to bring back the wicked stepsisters.  At the school he discovers the heroes and heroines of the ‘real’ world.  This is a fun show for all the family with upbeat, catchy songs performed by a talented young cast.
