Theatre: There is not much of a narrative to this show, but that’s the point. The audience is kept on their toes by an animated and engaging cast
Derek is a panto queen. Derek is glitter. Derek is the star of a one-man show that’s actually a cast of fifteen.
Developed with members of Run of the Mill, an ensemble of intellectually disabled artists and theatremakers, it’s a thoroughly unique, ambitious and lively show. It’s a soap opera, cabaret, and murder-mystery, featuring break dancing, dramatic televised interviews, and clips of EastEnders. There isn’t much of a narrative at all to this show, but that’s the point. The audience is kept on their toes by an animated and engaging cast, twisting and turning through their individual ideas of how the performance should take shape.
The show has been in development since 2023, and it’s the production company’s first large-scale theatre production.
