QUAY ARTS CENTRE, NEWPORT

Hear ye, hear ye: Johnny “Rooster” Byron is in town. Widely heralded as ‘the 21st Century’s best play,’ (Guardian) Jez Butterworth’s legendary classic will explode into The Quay Arts this November. “Rooster” Byron, alongside his loyal sidekick Ginger, appear in this extraordinary lament for a lost England.

On St George’s Day, the morning of the local county fair, Johnny Byron is a wanted man. The Council officials want to serve him an eviction notice, his son wants his dad to take him to the fair, Troy Whitworth wants to wreak his revenge and a motley crew of mates wants his ample supply of drugs and alcohol.

Age recommendation 15+

After selling out at Ventnor Fringe earlier this year Bob is back!

Charting the life and times of the Island’s greatest MP (citation needed) from his days as a councillor through to his sewage sea swims… and with the odd sausage thrown in!

 

Musical theatre sensation Ashleigh Mackness and dancing diva Callum Davies join local celebrity Joe Plumb in this side-splittingly funny parody musical.

Bob is coming to the Quay for ONE NIGHT ONLY!

This time it is bigger, better and more Isle of Wight than ever before with an all-singing, all-dancing, musical half a sausage spectacular…What could possibly go wrong!

Suitable for ages 18+

AVAILABLE TO LISTEN TO FOR FREE NOW!
