About TINDERBOX:
Sometime in the not-so-distant future, the British Isles are dissolving into the sea. Cities are rioting. Scotland has become a foreign country. And in a Bradford butcher shop clinging to the memory of a glorious past, Saul Everard reigns over his little kingdom of tradition, nationalism, and questionable cuts of meat.
When a fugitive Scottish artist — soaking wet and desperately on the run — crawls through the door seeking sanctuary, the uneasy balance of Saul’s world begins to crack. What follows is a love triangle, a power struggle, and a series of increasingly alarming discoveries about what, exactly, is in the sausages.
TINDERBOX is the electrifying debut of one of Britain’s most celebrated playwrights — fast, wild, and farcically funny, with a pitch-black comic vision that cuts right to the bone. -Bookmate
Lucy Kirkwood went on to write Chimerica, The Children, and Mosquitoes — but it all started here, with a butcher, his wife, and a very suspicious shop.

EUREKA DAY by Jonathan Spector
Fresh off its 2025 Tony win for Best Revival of a Play!
The Eureka Day School in Berkeley, California, is a bastion of progressive ideals: representation, acceptance, social justice. When a mumps outbreak threatens the Eureka community, facts become subjective and every solution divisive.
Performance Dates: September 10-26, 2026
TINDERBOX by Lucy Kirkwood
Fast, wild and farcically funny,

Performance Dates: November 6-21, 2026
SHAKESPEARE’S R&J by Joe Calarco
– and –
ANTIGONE by Lulu Raczka
Performed in Rep! See both shows in 1 Weekend!
These 2 modern takes on classic literature are a perfect balance of modern sensibilities imposed over classical tragedy.
Shakespeare’s R&J joins 4 students in an all boys boarding school who have discovered Romeo and Juliet and take to reading it aloud together as as escape from the strict schedule and mores they face at the school. Their nighttime reading turns into a liberating retelling of one of Shakespeare’s most famous plays.
Written by the same author as last season’s A Girls In School Uniform…this retelling of Sophocles’ masterpiece is focused on only Antigone and her sister Ismene as the only characters we see on stage. The relationship between these two teenage girls is a stark contrast to the war going on in Greece and the political pressures they have to navigate to simply mourn their dead brother.
Performance Dates: January 22-February 13, 2027
THE MOORS by Jen Silverman
A Gothic queer thriller.
Two sisters and a dog live out their lives on the bleak English moors, dreaming of love and power. The arrival of a hapless governess and a moor-hen set all three on a strange and dangerous path. The Moors is a dark comedy about love, desperation, and visibility.
Performance Dates: March 19-April 3, 2027
THE BEACON by Nancy Harris
Secrets are resurfacing from the depths in this Irish drama
