Devised by the company

With original songs and stories, The Washing Up takes an absurd look at the politics and practice of this every day act. Audiences have told us that it is “bonkers and brilliant”, so please do join us to explore what lies beneath the surface bubbles and find out whose turn it is to do the dishes and how they should be done. Every kitchen sink has a story to tell, of power struggles and pots and pans, of greasy plates and moments of quiet contemplation…

The Washing Up was premiered at Your Place, Brighton Festival in 2018 and is a partnership between small performance adventures and cascade creative recovery.

“funny, irreverent, restless and inventive” BN1 Magazine.

“ a generous ego-free ensemble performance, and the best of people’s theatre…”

This show will have a post-show discussion.

FREE to attend - Booking essential.

The event is now SOLD OUT but there is a waiting list available. To join the waiting list please visit https://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-washing-up-tickets-52862475086
