Christmas 2021 with The Wardrobe Theatre, a brand new alternative, adult comedy from the people that brought you Drac & Jill, Oedipuss In Boots, Rocky Shock Horror and more!
Desperate to seek out life beyond their 1860s Massachusetts homestead, the four March sisters are impatient to prove themselves. But after an inadvertent close encounter, Meg, Jo, Beth and Amy are on an intergalactic collision course with the worst scum in the universe and now the sisters must swap their needlework for neuralyzers and pageants for massive laser cannons! These little women want to change the world, but first they’ve got to save it…
Little Women In Black is an anarchic, sexy, adult-only devised comedy, injecting Louisa May Alcott’s literary classic with some much needed guns, gore and a sweet 1990s soundtrack! Directed by Julia Head (FullRogue Theatre) don’t miss this brand new parody mash-up featuring big belly laughs, passionate romance and unforgettable drama. This Christmas get ready for little women, big guns and scary aliens!
“A supercharged helping of festive filth.”
