Based on the hit BBC Radio 4 comedy
A brand new stage adaptation based on ‘the gloriously daft’ BBC Radio 4 series by Mark Evans.
Bleak Expectations is the story that Charles Dickens might have written after drinking too much gin. Two-time winner of the Best Radio Sitcom award and winner of a Sony Award, Bleak Expectations has captivated audiences and critics alike since its 2007 debut.
Hold on tight for a chaotic caper through Dickensian London with young Pip Bin: tragic half orphan, hopeless romantic and would-be-hero.
Follow Pip’s remarkable adventures with sisters Pippa and Poppy and best friend Harry Biscuit as they attempt to escape the scheming clutches of Mr Gently Benevolent, defeat the irrepressible Hardthrasher siblings and avert disaster at every turn. Will evil be vanquished by virtue? Can love triumph over hate? Immerse yourself in this joyful comedy mash-up featuring hideous boarding schools, dastardly plans, devilish disguises, pulse-quickening romances, heart-rendering death scenes, and definitely a happy ending.
