THE MONSTER IN THE HALL

By David Greig

Directed by Guy Hollands

Music by Nigel Dunn and Stephen Wright

Choreography by Andrew Panton

Recommended for 14+

An indie comedy musical about a girl on the verge of a nervous breakdown, played out by four actors and a big fat motorbike which goes vrroooommm.

Duck Macatarsney cares for her biker dad whose MS is getting increasingly bad. The Duke is a spliff smoking, bike riding, heavy metal and horror movie loving, widower who's brought up Duck since the death of her Mother. They're just about surviving when one morning the Duke wakes up blind and Duck hears that Social Services are coming to take her away.

Award-winning playwright David Greig returns with another smash hit.

Supported by Arts and Theatres Trust Fife and National Theatre of Scotland. Part of British Council 2011 Showcase
