A brand new play, set in the House of Commons, is due to premier at the William Penney Theatre Tadley on April 24-27 2024.

The play, entitled Well Bring the House Down is set in 2015 and details the journey of the fictional MP for Crystal Palace South Royce Owen as he comes to terms with the new Jeremy Corbyn leadership.

Written by Mike Brook and Steve Schollar, with the latter also directing, the play explores one man's dealings with the worlds of politics, family, and friendships.

Royce Owen is the Labour MP for Crystal Palace South, he has a comfortable majority, but he thinks he's in trouble.

Having confidently campaigned in support of two leadership candidates who lost, he is now desperate to curry favour with the successful new Party leader and his supporters.

Under pressure from various different factions in his own party, as well as his son and a local Trade Union rep, will Royce find a way forward or will he realise that he just doesn't care enough to carry on?

Tickets (£8/£6 concs) now available, or via the Box Office on the night.
