Happy Cannibals presents: THE PLAY’S THE THING

A rehearsal takes a dramatic turn.
A friendship implodes in real time.
A misunderstanding has catastrophic consequences.

Maisie has decided to stage a play about her friends. And it isn’t flattering. As accusations are hurled and tears are shed, our characters take a trip down the rabbit hole as they endeavour to find an answer to the impossible question: can we find truth in the theatre? And if so, who has the right to tell it?
 
THE PLAY’S THE THING is a story in three parts about representation, (mis)communication, art, and artifice. It’s a love letter to pub theatre, in all its messiness, contradiction, silliness, and joy.
 
‘Happy Cannibals has already attracted some of the best and brightest young creatives in London. [...] Theirs is a space to watch.’ - The Young(ish) Perspective
