What does the second-best hangman in England do on the day Parliament abolishes hanging? In his small Oldham pub, (ex) executioner Harry Wade holds court, surrounded by a motley crew of hangers-on all seeking his reaction to the news. When a mysterious stranger turns up, a series of twists and turns are set in motion leading to an astonishing climax. This savagely comic exploration of justice and punishment will have you laughing out loud, simultaneously shocked and delighted. A taut theatrical thriller by the multi award-winning writer of “The Banshees of Inisherin“, “In Bruges“, and “The Pillowman“.
Guildburys are an award-winning theatre company and are delighted to be performing at The Nomad Theatre. They will be returning to The Nomad Theatre next year in March with “Cold Comfort Farm” adapted by Paul Joust, and in November with Ayckbourn’s classic “Bedroom Farce”
This amateur production of Hangman is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd on behalf of Samuel French Ltd.
