UBU

king of the isle of wight

by Joe Plumb after Alfred Jarry

"Mr. Ubu, you will be King!
What could possibly go wrong?"

Prepare for total theatrical chaos as Horse Box Theatre unleashes a riotous, Isle of Wight-inspired twist on Alfred Jarry’s anarchic masterpiece Ubu Roi.

 

This delirious, no-holds-barred parody of Macbeth cranks ambition and absurdity to the max, plunging the grotesque and power-hungry Mr & Mrs Ubu into a whirlwind of corruption, carnage, and clumsy coups.

 

Expect ambition gone awry, belly laughs that bite, and a symphony of sheer madness, all wrapped in a scathing satire of politics that’s as timely as it is utterly ridiculous.

​

Brace yourselves: this is loud, wild and gleefully unhinged new production.
