Blackadder in Barnes features stage versions of three episodes from the much-loved BBC TV series written by Richard Curtis and Ben Elton. Follow Edmund Blackadder's trials and tribulations as he and Baldrick produce cunning plans to deal with all the obstacles which Percy, Melchett, Queenie, Nursey and a cast of thousands (well about ten, anyway) put in their way.

Abigail’s party

With performances in:

July 2021 | OSO Arts Centre, Barnes

August 2021 | Edinburgh Fringe Festival | theSpace @ Surgeons Hall, Fleming Theatre

Beverly and husband Laurence are throwing a party for their newlywed neighbours, Tony and Angela. Joining them is highly strung Susan who’s been banished from the party of her teenaged daughter Abigail. Welcome to 1970s suburbia and its heady mix of free-flowing cocktails, classic disco and cheese and pineapple sticks. As tensions rise and tempers flare, the sheen of respectability is torn away by the warring couples with hilarious and potentially disastrous consequences. Mike Leigh’s iconic Abigail’s Party is one of Britain’s most celebrated comedies; beloved by audiences, it thrills and delights in equal measures.

Stay tuned!

Humble Boy... has been postponed.

HOWEVER... have no fear! We are planning for our great production to be rescheduled to spring 2021!

Watch this space and keep following us for updates...

Felix returns to his Cotswold home for the funeral of his father only to find his mother doing rather well with a new nose job and a new suitor. He soon discovers that solving the riddle of his own emotional past and future is considerably more challenging than his academic quest for black holes. A delicious summer comedy about loss and gain and the surprises life can throw at you.
