CURRENT PRODUCTIONS
Plunging into the deepest and darkest holes, exposing the poignancy of lives lived without meaning, a tragicomic exploration of two people trying to make sense of their lives through the stories they tell each other.
Ridiculusmus presents a glorious subversion of Wilde’s comic masterpiece, in which all nine roles are performed by David Woods and Jon Haynes.
Merciless satire on contemporary office life and the industrialisation of creativity.
An irreverent provocation for peace, when the general rule is ‘whatever you say, say nothing’.
An excitable bundle of confused identity, and his friend Mr Chatterjee, attempt to explain the meaning of life.
Ridiculusmus presents its seminal lecture on the art of being funny.
