Taking place at the Pier Street Playhouse (aka the Baptist Church), The Austerity Games offers a choice of five performances between Tuesday and Sunday next week.
Joining the Ventnor Fringe Festival line-up, this family-friendly play offers 75 minutes of wonderfully storytelling.
Beleaguered Britain is recovering from the Blitz, austerity measures are in full force across the country and there is a heat wave on the way. But old Martha Britt wants to bake a cake and there are no eggs to be found.
To make matters worse it is the eve of the 1948 Olympic Games and she cannot abide sport. Can a posthumous visit from her late husband and the ghosts of the games past, present and yet to come convince her to save the Olympic spirit and herself?
Tell Tale blend a theatrical triathlon of physical storytelling, British wit and slapstick with a dash of Dickens to bring you the sportiest play you’ll ever see. Pip, Pip!
