MUSWELL HILL
By Torben Betts
Directed by Shannon Patterson
A Co-Production with The Barrow Group Theatre Company
November – December 2017
US Premiere
Set in the leafy north London suburb of Muswell Hill, a dinner party turns dangerously fraught, yet increasingly comical, as the hosts and guest rattle their middle class complacency to a point of no return. Amidst this domestic disaster, an earthquake in a developing nation rocks the rest of the world. How can they justify their everyday worries in an ever more fragile world?

A top-notch production…a night of laughter through clenched jaws.
Utterly absorbing…the cast is phenomenal…director Shannon Patterson has orchestrated a theatrical opus of staging, comic timing and characterization…Don’t wake up late and miss this gem.
Muswell Hill scales the heights…the most awkward dinner party seen in the British Isles since Banquo’s ghost gategrashed that Scottish banquet…the cast is excellent…a worthy addition to the pantheon
