Artistic Director, Adam Hemming, chats to Bewlay Dean-Stanton and Sonny Howes from Dead Dog Theatre and the stars of the show Frankie and Ruben. We discuss making comedy in cynical times, genuine love and friendship and new found freedoms, in advance of the run of Ruben at the Space (playing 5th - 9th July, including a livestream on the 7th and on demand access for two weeks after that).

The stage is set. The gun is cocked. The comedian wipes his brow and the puppet downs his drink. When it’s get a laugh or die trying: you’ll die laughing.

This immersive film noir farce will have you asking: Is every line a bad pun? How is the puppet alive? Is it meant to be a musical? When was the last time I told my family I loved them? And meant it? All these questions and more will go unanswered! No refunds, ya shmuck.
