What the Dickens? (working title)
Once again working with the Glaswegian playwright, Stewart Ennis, (previously ‘Another Nice Mess’ with TSG) January to July ‘27 will see the development of a major new production.
As their author lays on his death-bed, a group of minor characters from Dickens’ novels gather, demanding that their stories be resolved… before it’s too late.
There is a work-in-progress showing scheduled for July ’27, with full production projected for 2028.
The Occasion is a charity. Any donation, any amount, that you feel able to give would help us continue our work and would be enormously gratefully received. Thank you.
