Strange Matters (8.15pm)
Dave's House Theatre Company
Dave only goes to see nice plays with nice stories. So he’s taken it upon himself to write one. Strange Matters. A riveting tale of love, death, betrayal and birds.
But how will Dave’s evening of “tolerable, top-notch, moderately significant drama with a nice story” fare when Frank, the lead actor, fails to turn up?
As Dave’s House Theatre Company’s original script threatens to morph into something terrifyingly more original than intended, someone other than a bewildered audience is watching. That person is the technician, Dermot. He presses the buttons. And whilst the performers battle through fear, anger and confusion, he starts to think even he could do a better job. “Strange Matters…” marks the company’s first original script, written by Michael Jones & George Bradley.
After a small but well received tour of Cornwall in 2010, Strange Matters has now been reimagined for the brave new world of Devon in 2014.
