Fancy a night down the pub? Longpig Theatre presents a fresh twist on Two, Jim Cartwright’s modern classic.
Two actors. Countless characters. One lively evening in an 80's Northern English pub. Blending humor, warmth and pathos, this ever-popular play dives into life’s highs and lows — showing that sometimes, the strongest spirit in the pub is human. Cheers!
Longpig Theatre, a Nottingham-based company founded by Northerners Sylvia Robson & Gary Keane, who have a passion for telling human stories. After a sell out show at the Theatre Royal Third Stage in 2020, the pandemic put their plans on hold, but they have really enjoyed getting their teeth back into Two, a play they have admired for "bloody years!"
