Norway has given us much more than the Nobel Prize, including Henrik Ibsen. We’re performing his play, Ghosts, from 7th-14th Feb 2026.

Audiences are loving the rollercoaster ride of Deathtrap. Thursday and Friday are now sold out and only a few tickets remain for Saturday

A selection of audience comments. "Audience audibly gasping one moment and laughing the next" Acting, set, lighting ... all really impressive" "Kept me guessing right to the end, I did not see those twists coming!" "A slick production, amazing set and excellent performances" "A thriller with more twists than a corkscrew in a food blender ... in a tornado!"

We have an unusual production of Blood Brothers coming up this season in that it's the straight play rather than the musical. If you fancy auditioning for this exciting play you can find details here...

Deathtrap opens on Saturday 18th of October. Only a few remaining tickets available for the opening night. There's a reason why it's the longest running comedy thriller on Broadway.

Head and shoulders photo of Ben Donovan the director of Deathtrap If you want an evening that will constantly keep you guessing to the end of who has the upper hand, who is going to live to the end as well as a both dark and witty feel; then do come along and support this show for the opening of the 50th Season at the Edward Alderton.
