Mythology Workshop & Joy Of Drama Stageworks Presents:

Live from the Warehouse

7th - 18th July 2026


Live From The Warehouse is a gripping two-hander about boyhood, betrayal, and the algorithmic hunger for attention. Equal parts raw, funny, and haunting — it asks: What are we willing to lose to be seen?

 

Two seventeen-year-old boys, classmates and dreamers, break into an abandoned warehouse after a prank reel involving a stolen gun spins out of control. Chased by the police, hunted by a school drug dealer, and suffocating under the pressure to be

someone, they turn the camera on themselves.

 

Inside this decaying space, they confront fear, ambition, friendship, and failure — reimagining their future as actors, singers, podcasters... fugitives. As night deepens, so does their obsession: if they can’t escape their reality, maybe they can frame it.

 

What begins as confession soon warps into performance. And when the line between content and consequence finally disappears, one of them does the unthinkable — for the perfect shot.

 

This production will be performed in English

Waving

In a coastal studio, a portrait takes shape and old roles are redrawn.

28th July - 1st August, 7:30pm


In a coastal studio, a portrait takes shape and old roles are redrawn. The talented artist is no longer a woman her children recognise. Her adored son and overlooked daughter are rocked by the change. What washes up when the tide retreats – and what stories vanish with the shifting sands? Waving is a moving and humorous look at the nerve centre of a creative yet destructive family. In Rosalind Philp’s debut play, time and reality blur in a vivid exploration of life, loss and identity.




The White Bear Presents

The Man from Earth

18th-22nd August


At a casual leaving party, John Oldman proposes an impossible truth: that he is 14,000 years old. The Man from Earth is a thrilling tale of 8 academic minds embarking on a charged analysis of history, faith and what it means to be human.
