It is likely that the issue shall continue for the full run of this show. Therefore please be aware when booking that access to the auditorium is by the stairs only. We are contacting wheelchair bookers, but if your booking will be affected by this please get in contact with us. Please accept our sincerest apologies.

Four middle-management businesswomen set off on a team building exercise and succeed in becoming the first people ever to get shipwrecked on an island in the Lake District.

Bound in fog, menaced by wildlife, and cut off from the world, this perfunctory middle-class exercise turns into a carnival of recriminations, French cricket and sausages.

Over the campfire, truths are told and dirty laundry is aired (literally). What should have been a bonding process for Denise, Julie, Fay and Sheila turns into a muddy, bloody fight for survival.

An engaging, warm, and funny play from the author of Calendar Girls and Kinky Boots
