LAUREL’S AND HARTFORD HOUSE PRESENT DIG

LAUREL’S AND HARTFORD HOUSE PRESENT DIG

PRICE – £10 – £15 (VENUE DEPENDANT)

Dig is a one act comedy, set in 4040. It sees a young couple excavating a site full of twenty first century relics. What do they find, how do they interpret them and what happened to their ancestors’ society and culture? It prompts questions about what our society will leave behind and what future generations will think of us. This extends beyond the physical objects into questions about our beliefs, behaviours and stewardship.

Dig is tailored to each area that it visits – in Newcastle, they might find Brown Ale, in Washington they might find Jordan Pickford’s gloves.

DIG is a co-production between Laurels and Hartford House.

Executive Producer, Jamie Eastlake, is an Olivier Award winning theatre maker, fresh from the hugely successful Gerry & Sewell at The Theatre Royal, Newcastle.

Writer and Director Ian Smith is the creator of Juggling (Laurels 2023), KNOT and the sold out comedy EAT at The Exchange, North Shields.
