This autumn we’re all very excited – it’s our biggest and best season yet. Which shows will you be coming to see? Things kick off in style with our first visit from the internationally acclaimed Hull Truck Theatre Company, who will be performing Shakers. Written by award-winning team John Godber and Jane Thornton and directed by Godber himself this is sure to be a quick seller, so book early to avoid disappointment. At the other end of the season it’s our annual pantomime, which this year is the classic tale of Snow White, starring the fabulous Jean Rogers. Along with many other roles Jean is fondly remembered as Dolly Skilbeck in Emmerdale, and will be joined for this specially commissioned new production by CBBC’s Jez Edwards. In September and October we’ve got a very special season of freshly picked new work. We’ve been scouring the country for the best visual and physical theatre and have come up with some real treats, including three Total Theatre Award winners. Precarious and Red Cape have given some of my favourite performances over the last couple of years, and local heroes Chotto Ookii will be returning home from the Edinburgh Fringe with their new production, Sweet. Our ongoing partnership with Yorkshire Dance is reaping great benefits this year with three excellent dance shows, including new works by David Hughes Dance, Balbir Singh and Vincent Dance. And if comedy is your thing, we’ve got some more big names for you. Simon Amstell, star of BBC TV’s Never Mind The Buzzcocks, will be playing two warm-up gigs with us ahead of a major UK tour later in the autumn. We’re also playing host to Toby Hadoke, who will be bringing his much-celebrated Moths Ate My Doctor Who Scarf. And don’t forget our regular Clean (as possible) Comedy Show at half-term, with Fair Trade laughs that won’t turn the air blue. Book your tickets now! Gemma Bonham Community Participation and Arts Programmer For tickets please ring 0113 224 3801, email boxoffice@leeds.gov.uk or book online at www.carriageworkstheatre.org.uk The Carriageworks The Electric Press, 3 Millennium Square, Leeds, LS2 3AD Disabled parking available on Cookridge Street alongside Leeds City Museum.

money double
by John Godber
It’s Friday night. The air is thick with excitement and eau de Lynx. A shot of Dutch courage and one last mirror check before it’s ‘out the door’ in search of true love and oblivion. The beer is flowing, the floor is filling and the hormones are flying. As the club heats up, the men in black are out in the cold. Keeping one eye on trouble and the other on the ladies, our four mighty bouncers take us on a hilarious journey through the highs and lows of British club culture. Ever seen yourself after a few too many? Be warned. This is observational comedy at its best. Get £1 off Bouncers if you book for Shakers as well.

if we go on Directed and designed by Charlotte Vincent with text by Wendy Houstoun Composed by Alex Catona An exceptional ensemble of multi-tasking performers and musicians morph words into movement, shunt gesture into sound and at times burst into song to create a performance you can believe in. In a relentless succession of splintered transactions, where words lose their strength, music strains to be heard and movement meanders into exhaustion and incoherence, If We Go On asks: If you had one last dance in you, what shape would it take?

the complete works of shakespeare (abridged)
Back by popular demand.

a double bill
a resounding tinkle by N F Simpson
the dumb waiter by Harold Pinter
A Resounding Tinkle Why is the elephant the wrong size? What will they call it? How should they react when someone rings their doorbell asking them to form a Government? These are the questions facing Bro and Middie Paradock in this absurdly funny satire about suburbia. The Dumb Waiter When will the target appear? An Ormitha what? Who is Wilson? Gus and Ben wait for their ‘hit’ in a basement with idiosyncratic plumbing, a Dumb Waiter with increasingly bizarre requests, and not even a cup of tea! This darkly funny play charts the tension between Gus and Ben towards a surprising conclusion. In association with Samuel French Ltd and Faber & Faber Ltd

Five short interlinked plays with a common theme – the confusion, heartache and comedy caused when people fail to communicate.

A rock musical based on Puccini’s opera La Bohème. It tells the story of a group of impoverished young artists and musicians struggling to survive and create in New York’s Lower East Side in the thriving days of Bohemian Alphabet City, under the shadow of AIDS. This adaptation has been carefully produced with the Larson estate to retain the dramatic intent of the groundbreaking original, and consists of minimal changes to language to make it possible for young people to perform and enjoy.
