✨️ Whole at The Place in Bedford


Time: 19:30

✨️ Whole is a show for 2 people - one of them is on stage, the other isn't.

✨️ ABOUT:
Emma’s been looking for ways to fill the gaping hole her identical twin sister’s death left behind. So she thought she’d make a show for them. Only it's proving a little tricky because Emma doesn’t like doing things on her own.

Whole is an intimate peek into the journeys we take to re-find ourselves in our darkest moments - exploring female rage, sibling joy & the healing power of a creative mission. 

*️⃣ Supported by Cambridge Junction, Stobbs New Ideas Fund, Metal, artsdepot and Arts Council England

🎭 ABOUT
Join the critically-acclaimed Pantaloons Theatre Company as they put on a frantic disposition to tackle Shakespeare’s greatest tragedy in their own anarchic style.

When he discovers that his uncle has murdered his father, married his mother and traitorously taken the crown of Denmark there’s only one course of action for Hamlet: feign madness, frequently monologue and take swift revenge. But outrageous fortune has other plans for the poor Prince of Denmark…

🎭 Perseus & Andromeda (Outdoor Production) - The Place Theatre, Bedford


Time: 19:00

🎭 Join The Place Theatre in Bedford for an outdoors production.

✨️ Perseus & Andromeda
Being a teenager is a difficult time in your life. Take Perseus for example. An impoverished, but ambitious young lad, from a single parent home, has to try and make his way in the world while dealing with the delusions of his mother. She insists that they are royalty, and his father was a God! How is he supposed to live up to that?

Andromeda would love to be left alone, but being actual royalty, she has duties, like marriage, and a mother who is insufferably vain. Embarrassing enough, but when she starts including her daughter in her vain boasts life is about to get a lot more dramatic for the young girl.

Then there are the Gods. They are starting to take an interest in all of these goings on. That rarely makes things easier, they do have a way of making things more difficult…
