IN-THEATRE

Our much loved 'panto alternative' is back this June!

Join Sam Snape, local vicar, private investigator and part time Wall of Death rider for an adventure that will take you across the wilds of Suffolk. Does our eponymous hero have enough time to solve the mystery of the exploding sheep, take down a posse of local hoodlums, break the dreaded curse and get back to the vicarage for tea and cake? Only time will tell.

Written by Julian Harries and directed by Ivan Cutting the show takes its cues from the world of film noir and local myths. This silly satirical romp features original live music, hilarious songs and it promises to leave you smiling from ear to ear.


What the press & our audience members say about the show

"One of the most effective online showings of a live performance I’ve seen - it really felt like I was in the auditorium"

Audience Member

"It is everything you would expect from an Eastern Angles 'alternative panto' production - it's a silly satirical piece, full of localisms, wisecrack and heart"
