Dash Arts in association with Leeds Playhouse presents

Our Public House

A big hearted and funny new play

With Kit Esuruoso (Tina The Musical), Chaya Gupta (EastEnders), Gabriella Leon (Casualty), Lauren Moakes (Romeo and Juliet), Fergus O Donnell (DowntownAbbey, Holby City) and Bharti Patel (Doctors, EastEnders).

When an entire community spoils their ballots and refuses to vote, a local pub on the brink of closure becomes the only place left to talk.

As a storm rages outside, landlady Sanjana, a family in mourning, familiar regulars and unexpected guests are thrown together fora night of debate, confession and open mic.

In a town divided by politics, secrets spill. Songs rise. People fall in love. Something shifts.Inspired by the real words of over 600 people nationwide, Our Public House transforms the state of the nation into a play with original live music, about community, connection and what might change if everyone had their say. Where drama and voices like yours take centre stage.

At every show, a local community ensemble will be part of the action on stage, performing alongside the cast and highlighting the issues they feel are most important locally–no two performances will be the same!

From award-winning playwright Barney Norris (“a writer of grace and luminosity”-The Stage) and director Josephine Burton(“immersive ingenuity”-The Observer).

Told through spoken English, British Sign Language (BSL), Sign Supported English(SSE), creative captioning and music, Our Public House brings together a cast of hearing and deaf performers

All performances are captioned. One performance will be BSL-interpreted (2 July 7:30pm)
