Dinner, theatre and disagreement

Peacemongers

Tonight we invite you to dinner and a show. The show is about bigotry and polarisation. We’ve made it a musical to lighten the mood. Dinner will be hearty and simple, served by our good friends at Moon Rabbit. 

Peacemongers is a real-life attempt at utopia. It's documentary theatre at its most absurd, and an act of rebellious and delusional hope. Witness a group of ordinary people who set out to write a play about an ideal society, one in which bigotry doesn’t exist. What started as an exercise in rehearsal, spirals into a years-long endeavour. 

Let us welcome you to dinner and the final stage of this quixotic undertaking, in which this unconventional company of artists attempts to answer the question: What do we do with people we disagree with? 

*Please include all allergies/dietary requirements in your booking. Vegan and GF options will be served nightly. For any other requirements, please book at least a week in advance to ensure we have time to consult with catering.
