THE PUBLIC EXECUTION OF GUIDO FAWKES (KIND OF)
Autumn 2020
England. 1605. A Nation reeling from plague, plagued with division and divided about treason.
Sound familiar?
We probably all fantasise about a plot of Parliament exploding right now, but come and discover the secrets of those who actually tried it.

*UPDATE* Due to the UK Government's implementation of a second National Lockdown from Thursday 5th November (we are staggeringly aware of the irony), we have had to take the devastating decision to postpone this production until Autumn 2021. Thank you so much to our supporters who responded so generously to our crowdfunding 'Phoenix' campaign which ensured we were able to overcome this hurdle and be in the position to bring live theatre to audiences in December 2020. Half Cut Theatre is hugely grateful to:
