The Best of the rest

Taboo

A sparkling new musical by Boy George, brings to life a decadent decade (80's) -a vibrant era of colourful dreams, dazzling fashion, and the beginning of pop culture as we know it today.

Featuring 16 brand new songs alongside classics hits including 'Do You Really Want to Hurt Me' and 'Karma Chameleon', this witty and entertaining new musical takes on the life, times and styles of the innovators who shaped and defined the face of a decade. A love story of passion, ambition and betrayal unfolds alongside the journey of Boy George's rise and fall from international stardom.

Cast includes Ewan Morton as 'Boy George and Matt Lucas as 'Leigh Bowry'.

Dangerous Corner

Robert and Freda Caplan are hosting a dinner party for their colleagues and friends at their stylish country retreat. They are young, beautiful and successful, and seemingly have the world at their feet, but the suicide of one of their number the previous year leads to an out-pouring of the dark truth just beneath the surface. The action revolves around a momentary choice, when one of the characters decides to tell the truth about an insignificant detail, leading to the discovery that nothing is as it seems. Betrayal, fraud and murder are exposed as the foundations of their comfortable lives.

This West Yorkshire Playhouse production of the JB Priestley play features Ballykissangel's Dervla Kirwin, ex-Casualty star Patrick Robinson and Jacqueline Pearce.

Vagina Monologues

Eve Ensler's thought provoking and witty series of stories dealing with the ins and outs of the female genitalia and collected during interviews with hundreds of women, attracted a multitude of celebrities to the stage for its 1998 off-Broadway premiere including Winona Ryder, Glenn Close and Whoopie Goldberg as well as winning Ensler an Obie Award.

It then played a sell-out six week run at the King's Head in London in 1999 which included a star-studded charity performance at the Old Vic on Valentine's Day. Once again, a host of well-known faces, including Elizabeth McGovern, Nina Wadia and Lauren Ward (until December 15), are lined up to deliver the monologues, which include stories such as Hair, The Flood, and If Your Vagina Could Talk, What Would It Say?.

Art

Yasmina Reza's award-winning comedy shows how the relationship between three friends is turned on its head when one of them purchases a work of modern art for a very large amount of money.

One of the friends is loathe to believe that any one would spend money on what to him is merely a white canvas. The third friend, in trying to appease both, ignites the quarrel which forces all three of them to re-examine their friendship and the direction in which it is going.
