3 Couples, 2 Breakups, 1 Barbie and The Berlin Wall

The Rugby School Theatre Studies and Performing Arts Department together with Macready Theatre present:

3 Couples, 2 Breakups, 1 Barbie and The Berlin Wall

Eight teenagers (and a Barbie doll) invite you to a joyfully absurd play about love, love, love in all its weird and wonderful forms. In true Square Pegs style, this life-imitating-art play about growing up asks lots of questions about what it means to be human and in our own inimitable absurdist fashion, offers absolutely no answers whatsoever.

Join Offie-nominated Macready Theatre Square Pegs Young Actors [https://www.facebook.com/macreadysquarepegs]for 45 minutes of fast-paced, fun-filled story-telling as we share tales of breakups, heartache and what it’s like to fall in love with the Berlin Wall.

Every year, a scriptwriter from the Bloomsbury Festival, London is commissioned to join Rugby School Theatre and Performing Arts Department to write a new play for students to stage and tour to Edinburgh Festival in August and Bloomsbury Festival in October. This year, scriptwriter Georgie Dettmer has kept in line with our favoured genre; absurdist, in this new play.
