Every hospital, medical-based, Doctors-and-Nurses cliché-ridden drama onstage in a comedy mash-up spoof!
It’s Dr Ann Fleming’s first day at St David’s, where her unfortunately-named mentor Dr Death is determined to show her who’s boss. As medical emergencies overload the hapless staff, Dr Fleming has to juggle a complicated budding love affair, a kidney, and a nosey Hospital boss. Not literally.
Yes – ‘Holby City’, ‘Casualty’, ‘E.R’ and ‘Doctors’ – not to mention movies galore, are re-imagined and invigorated by Rebecca Vaughan, Andrew Margerison and Gavin Robertson in a pacy, cliché-ridden comic homage to the intrigues and dramas of every hospital plotline on the big and small screen.
It’ll have you in stitches!
To be taken once a day. (Or twice if there’s a matinee).
The award-winning Dyad Productions have been performing at The Swallow Theatre since 2016, most recently with Austen’s Women: Lady Susan and A Room of One’s Own. Now they join forces with Company Gavin Robertson. It’s a pedigree of the first degree! Between them they have toured the UK and internationally, with resounding success over the last few years. Labouring away in secret, looking for the perfect co-production has taken time, but finally the answer has arrived!
Created in collaboration with the Old Town Hall, Hemel Hempstead.
