‘Yes, he's in a Celebrations tub. No, he's not in with the bounties.’
This five-star show is a darkly funny road trip about grief, guilt, and a stolen tub of ashes – because healing doesn’t always go to plan.
Aaron, an out-of-work entertainer, has nicked his dad's ashes and hidden them in a tub of chocolates. Now he’s on his way to Cornwall with no money, a half-baked plan and the police in hot pursuit. Catch him while you can!
Written and performed by Oscar Brudenall-Jones and directed by Esalan Gates (BroadwayWorld UK Nominee – Best New Production), this darkcomedy explores grief in a post-pandemic world, as well as sperm bank strikes and why you shouldn't lose your rag at an old person.
Produced by To The Tooth Theatre, this is comedy with a bite.
