When The Summer Palace premiered at the Brighton Fringe, the production created an exceptional buzz, with audiences praising it as "amazingly gripping," and "mesmerising." Now the play returns to the Lantern Theatre for three performances only. Don't miss it! "A very entertaining and pacy production, with accomplished performers and intelligent writing." - Rialto Arts, Brighton. This chillingly funny psychological thriller begins when an internationally acclaimed theatre director working under a totalitarian regime is brought in for questioning. He thinks his political activism is the reason, but the person facing him across a desk in an anonymous room turns out to be an actor he hasn't seen for twenty years, and they have unfinished business. The director begins to realise that the interrogation isn't quite what it seems as the personal and the political become dangerously intertwined and themes of power, identity, and the artist's role in resisting oppression play out in a deadly game of cat-and-mouse. The twists and turns of this darkly comedic play mark the return to the theatre of writer Paul Bassett Davies, who began his career in experimental multimedia performance before moving to radio and television, where he worked with some of the biggest names in British comedy and drama. He is author of four published novels and several stories, one of which was praised by Stephen King as "Mordantly funny... Poe would have liked it." Paul also plays one of the roles in this two-hander; the other is performed by local actor John Black, in a welcome return to the Brighton scene that builds on his growing reputation and decade-plus experience across stage, screen and immersive theatre.

Grittily honest, totally enlightening and hilariously funny tales of policing from the late 1970's onwards. It's the late 1970's, Jack Bryan, a young father, shop steward and steel worker experiences the pain of redundancy just before Christmas and the impending birth of his second child. Caught up in the decline of traditional British Industries he joins the police at a time when that organisation is also in a state of rapid change. For the next 30 years Jack witnesses, first-hand, some of the most important events in late 20th century, British social history: the race riots of the early 80s; the miners' strike of 84-85; and the decimation of British Industries due to both globalisation and Thatcher. Coupled with all this, Jack finds himself entering a world which very few people get to know... a kind of psychotic Narnia that is governed by its own rules. In the telling of this story Jack attempts to explain to the general public the reality of this parallel world. The results are both grittily honest, totally enlightening and hilariously funny.

★★★★★ Reviews Hub: "A Thing of Absolute Wonder." - "Captivating" - "Beautiful" In 1967, Roger Patterson went for a ride in the woods with one of his buddies and returned with 60 seconds of footage of one of America's most enduring legends. Bigfoot. That's the way Roger tells the story, anyhow. Bluff Creek is a one-man show about the man who captured the so-called 'Patterson-Gimlin film' in 1967. The 60-second film, which depicts an alleged 'Bigfoot' walking across a dry creek bed and turning towards the camera, immortalised the image of Bigfoot we all know today. According to enthusiasts, the film has never been conclusively debunked, and many cite it as the most compelling evidence for the existence of Bigfoot. However, the story behind the making of the film and the man behind the camera is just as fascinating as what it captures. A terminally ill rodeo clown with a pathological fascination with Bigfoot. A hustler, a con-man, as charismatic as he was mean. In Bluff Creek, Roger tells you his story from start to finish. He will look you dead in the eyes and tell you that he saw a Bigfoot out there in 1967, a story he maintained to his dying day, and you will want to believe him. But there's always the chance he's not being entirely honest with us. Bluff Creek is a play about the nature of belief and the power of the unknown. The story of the Patterson-Gimlin film is a litmus test. To those who want to believe, the footage is almost too good to be true. To the more hard-headed among us, they merely see a man in an ill-fitting ape suit. But even the most ardent sceptics will still feel a tug in their gut towards the fantastical; A gnawing want to believe that the impossible could be lurking out in the woods of America's Pacific Northwest. Bluff Creek debuted at the Brighton Fringe 2026 at the Lantern Theatre and received a glowing 5 review from The Reviews Hub [https://www.thereviewshub.com/brighton-fringe-bluff-creek-the-lantern-theatre/]. Loose Threads is a Brighton-based emerging theatre company led by Charlie Flynn and Aya O'Shea.
