On Wednesday 28th May 2025, The Frazer Theatre is excited to welcome Claptrap Theatre Company with their show "Switcheroo - A Story Told Twice"
When it comes to scattering their mother’s ashes, three siblings are hit with a bombshell revelation that turns their world upside down
This remarkable play is based on the very simple premise that ‘it’s not what you say, it’s the way that you say it’.
The first act is a full-blown, larger than life comedy. Then, after the interval, the characters swap round and it’s repeated as a serious drama. The difference between the two Acts is astonishing.
