Play Things is a monthly space for performers of any kind to share and showcase new and experimental works, run by Sophie Joans and Cailyb Prinsloo, from the Spark in the Dark production company. Play Things is a wonderful space for incubating new and exciting theatre pieces.
This month's theme is Come What May: we’re looking for stories of grit, songs of empowerment, showcases of blood, sweat and tears. No matter the obstacles we may face, we’re weathering the storms and keeping our heads high and our peers entertained. Bring us your tales of Shakespearean steadfastness, Herculean resolve, and foolhardy determination in the face of potential doom.
