EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED
Enter a wonderfully dark and dangerous world where nothing is quite as it seems and every outcome is surprising. Tales of psychopathic childhood nemeses, slyly threatening landladies, and savage and sadistic gambling games.
Roald Dahl’s renowned short stories for adults are brought to the stage for the first time by The League of Gentlemen’s Jeremy Dyson, co-writer of the Everyman and Playhouse and Lyric Hammersmith smash-hit Ghost Stories and directed by Polly Findlay winner of the JMK Trust Young Theatre Director Award.
In Dahl's brilliant, desperate style, each of these short stories has its own atmosphere
