What's On

George Rigden - Self-Inflicted
 

In 2020, George Rigden was roundly (and rightly) cancelled, and his life fell apart. In 2025, he was finally diagnosed with autism, finally sobered up - and began to put his life back together.

Now, more than half a decade on from his life falling apart, he’s finally stable (and sober) enough to talk about it.

An interactive musical comedy show about attempted redemption, coming to understand yourself & self-improvement, while also staying true to yourself.

A hilarious, heart-wrenching musical romp through the life of someone who’s been to hell and back through their own self-destructibe tendencies, and lived to tell the tale. (Its funnier than it sounds. A lot funnier.)

    Dancing at Lughnasa | New Theatre
    A gifted embroider of words, Friel combines soft lyricism and hard meaning in his play, a tragical comical historical pastoral on a spree and spoiling for a spirited spar.

    There’s a palpable playfulness to these performances, disciplined, drilled and delightful. There’s fire, bite and fun and lots of kissing.

    This is not your dear old Grandmother’s Hamlet, it is your drunk Uncle’s, who remembers every Monty Python episode by heart.
