You’re invited to Hannah's BIG GOODBYE PARTY! (please, no presents)

There’ll be comedy, songs and heart.
An office party, a rave and the no. 35 bus.

Hannah's given it her best shot. She's followed all the rules and tried really hard, but it's just not working for her. So she's going to live as a sheep.

(Don't worry, she's cool with it)

Prepare to be wowed by sheep facts, an epic sheep outfit and the possibility of feeling some feelings...

But let's not give it all away, parties need the odd surprise.


See ewe there!

Audience feedback:  
​
YOU HAVE TO SEE THIS. No spoiler alerts, I want to see how you'll see it. It's one of those shows that seems to be light and fluffy but then you are waking up at night and think more, because you realised there was a twist in the twist!
​
It reduced me to tears and made me laugh and smile so much my cheeks hurt
​
Brilliant! Go see it! Emotional rollercoaster!

Absolutely captivating from start to finish

A show about belonging. As an autistic person who has struggled to belong her whole life, I have never felt so seen. Thank you

A sneaky peek into the devising process
​

This is where the show's anthem, The Thing About Sheep, was born, back in May 2023.

 

It's now a finished song, complete with sheep synth backing track.

​

If you learn the lyrics, it MIGHT come in handy at the show...
