The Misanthrope
Based on the play by Molière and adapted by Matthew Partridge
24 - 28 March, 7.30 pm
Directed by Angelika Michitsch
Corruption, intrigue, deception and love.
Moliere’s classic comedy about lies, hypocrisy and what happens when the person we desire is the person we most dislike – this time played out in a seedy cocktail bar in fictional Maghrebia during the 2011 Arab Spring. Alex West, a truth-telling journalist in love with the unprincipled Céline, comes up against Oronte, a sleazy local politician who will stop at nothing to further his career, and a rival for Céline’s affections. How will Alex negotiate the entanglements of twisted political and emotional affairs?
Quiet Light by Erin Hutton
14 - 18 April 2026, 7.30 pm
In a flooded world, Ray’s boat crashes into a lighthouse. Stranded with Ava, the strange lighthouse keeper, he waits for help to arrive. However, something is terribly wrong. Ava and Ray are haunted by something more than guilt and regret. Something that walks the lighthouse, wishing they would stay. Quiet Light explores the lives of lonely people seeking refuge in the ocean from their warped memories. The ghosts they see are not real – but if they look real, and feel real, then what does it matter?
Stanislavski Can’t Save Me From the Apocalypse
by Maggie Dickinson
5 - 9 May 2026, 8 pm
Five women went to teach theatre for the summer. They just didn’t know the world would end before camp did.
In Stanislavski Can’t Save Me From the Apocalypse, life at a theatre camp in the northern woods of Maine takes a shocking turn when five counsellors suddenly become responsible for more than forty campers after the world ends on the final day of camp. Their artistic dreams collide with the abrupt demands of survival, forcing women who once built imaginary worlds onstage to confront a terrifying new reality offstage.
Retrospective
by T J Elliott
14 - 23 May 2026, 7.30 pm
Renowned artist Rory McGrory wakes up trapped in a mysterious art gallery surrounded by empty
canvas’s. No art. No answers. And no way out—until he’s greeted by his ex-wife Pippa, who also
happens to be dead.
She’s determined to convince him that he is, too—and that the artless frames are, in fact, his life’s retrospective. But why can’t he see his own work? As Rory ricochets between denial and acceptance, he’s forced to confront his unresolved past and the emotional toll of a life half-seen. Is this strange afterlife gallery a purgatory—or his final chance to see his life clearly?
“Retrospective” at the Barons Court Theatre marks the UK premiere of the play following its world
premiere at the 2025 Broadway Bound Theatre Festival in New York.
“Retrospective” is produced by a unique collaboration with US theatre company Knowledge
Workings Theatre and Australian theatre company Mon Sans Productions
