About this show

A dark musical comedy with a new pop/jazz soundtrack. Follow an underpaid bartender trying to make it through the night under the watchful eye of the owner, Oscar Pendragon, and his eternal fiancée, Tulisa. A new threat, 'love drug', is making its rounds in the bar, damaging both relationships and reputations. A young love triangle, too naive for the night they've chosen, find themselves in a twisted game. Enjoy witty lines and catchy songs on this absurd night out inspired by the Shakespeare classic 'A Midsummer Night's Dream.'
