LOCAL theatre company TS Theatre Productions will perform the premier of the new political comedy drama play Eugenia at the Shoebox Theatre in March.
Eugenia tells the story of Jean, a scientist who finds herself in a world where expertise is vilified and personality politics run roughshod over truth and human decency. Tired of howling into the void, she follows a more practical course of dissent. But at what cost?
An original piece by Swindon playwright, Robert Lewis, directed by Peter Hynds this play is darkly comical and embraces the ridiculous as well as the profound. If you’ve never considered how a suicidal panda may choose to express himself, this show has the answer.
In typical TS vein, this play was written and will be performed within eight weeks. Given the topical nature of the story and the uncertainty of what tomorrow will bring, time is very much of the essence.
TS Theatre Productions was formed in 2011 with one rule: If you have a good idea then pick it up and run with it as quickly as possible.
TS performed ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream’ in 2012 at the invitation of the RSC and in the same year sold out Swindon’s Wyvern Theatre with ‘One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest’.
- Eugenia is at The Shoebox Theatre, Shoebox Theatre, Swindon on Friday, March 17 and Saturday, March 18. 8pm. Tickets £10 available from Ticket Source. ticketsource.co.uk/venue/ELGMHK
