TOMORROW NIGHT!
The first show on our theatre double-bill this week, LOOK AFTER YOUR KNEES on Wed 15 Oct is a brave intelligent foray into the the meaning of life, and about what happens when creeps up on you unexpectedly. A show filled to the rafters with both humour and sensitivity that we ...can all relate to.

Followed by HASBIAN on Thu 16 Oct - A nostalgic and hilarious look back at Beth's experience of growing up queer in the 00s - through the prism of Beth's teenage diary entries and plenty of #millenial pop culture references, music and cringey moments!

FRI-YAY night fun! 👀❔
💋Mizz mag eat ur heart out! Take our y2k Crush Quiz to match you with the characters in @hasbianshow 💕

#Hasbian is based on Beth's REAL teenage diaries (2001-03). To save the blushes of Beth's real friends (and foes), all the names in the ...diary have been changed to the name of the actor who'd play them in a 00s teen movie of Beth's life...

Follow the link in our profile now to answer 10 scientifically formulated questions & find ur match 💗

Let us know who you got!

& don’t forget Hasbian is at Proteus Creation Space on Thursday 16th October at 7.30pm

“A unique insight into growing up queer in the 90s… a story for our times” - ★★★★★ A Young-ish Perspective

💋

Image Description:
Hasbian promo shot of Beth (a white person with dark hair in a high ponytail) opening a blue book with a teardrop on the front & making a scandalised expression. Beth wears pink dungarees and a lilac tie-dye t shirt and has neon pink nails. Surrounding Beth's head are glowing heart shapes with photos of 00s teen movie idols (Ashton Kutcher, Clea Duvall & Natasha Lyonne - in a heart together sucking a lollipop, Joseph Gordon Levitt, Lindsay Lohan & Alyson Hannigan). The bottom of the photo has a torn strip of graph paper and the text: Who's your Hasbian Crush? With pink hearts doodled next to Hasbian & under the question mark. Yellow doodled stars also surround Beth & the crushes.

I think it is testament to our incredible cast and creative team, that it has been hard to pick out what we in the business call a 'pull quote' from this review by @basingstokegazette ...you just need to go ahead and read journalist Jasmine's words! (see link in stories!)Last Friday night had a palpable atmosphere of love and poignance that could be felt by every member of the audience, and has been reflected back in all the kind words that have been fed back over the past week. Thankyou to everyone who attended or supported in some way, the opening performances of The Law of Mayhem - a play that deserves a future in touring and beyond, and, through adjacent projects happening over the coming months, we'll have much more to share about it's long-term legacy. #thelawofmayhem
