Direct from sweeping the board at the Edinburgh Festival 2008, winning a Fringe First, the NSDF Edinburgh Emerging Artists Award and the prestigious Carol Tambor Award, catch Eight in Baldock before its 2009 New York transfer.

The 7.30 performance is at the mercy of the audience vote. Choose the four characters you want to see. Stay on for the second performance to see the other four.

Our selection of eight oddballs, hitting adulthood in the Naughties, have their lives invaded by notions of normality. Sharply written and beautifully performed, this play rebuffs the definition of contemporary youth as apathetic, drug-munching, no-brainers.

‘You’re blown away by four terrific monologues that succeed in saying far more about the mood of modern Britain than some of the nation’s leading playwrights can manage in a two-hour drama.’ **** Joyce McMillan, Scotsman

If you buy tickets for the first performance as well you will receive a reduced rate of £10 for both tickets!
