Utterly thrilled that I'll be starting off 2017 with a production of my new stage comedy Birthday Suit, for a full four week run at the Old Red Lion in London. The ORL is one of my favourite fringe theatre venues and I'm extremely pleased to get something performed there! It's being directed by Alice Malin and produced by pluck. productions, led by EJ Martin and Philip Honeywell.

“This is where the magic happens!”

It's Richard's birthday, the big 4-0. He's throwing a party and inviting all his colleagues. Diane is new to the firm and, delighted to be asked, she's brought along her boyfriend Nick, who has promised to be the spirit of party itself. There's trifle. Lots of trifle. And nibbles. There's just one problem: nobody else is coming to Richard's party. 

It looks like Diane and Nick are in for a long evening, trapped with their peculiar host and their own worst anxieties. Until, that is, someone does turn up. Someone with a lot of history and an appetite for revenge.
​
'Not interrupting anything? I let myself in...' 

A sharp and biting new comedy from one of the UK’s funniest up-and-coming writers, Birthday Suit asks: at what point we do give up our dreams and join in with the real world?
