Very excited that BETTER YESTERDAY has been nominated for a Standing Ovation Award by London Pub Theatres Magazine.

That’s a wrap on the show - a huge thank you to all those involved and to everyone who came to see it.

Another shoutout to @ShoreditchTH - having three full days of free rehearsal space this week has been incredibly helpful before our show opens on Tuesday. What a great building as well.

[Honest Fool Productions @honestfoolprods]

Many thanks to @ShoreditchTH for their amazing rehearsal space scheme last week! A wonderful building to rehearse in.

‘But doesn’t it give you a kind of triumphant feeling? That all they can do is speculate?’

Here Harold and Sylvia are captured by the paparazzi. BETTER YESTERDAY follows them home.

At the Bread and Roses Theatre, take a glimpse beyond the speculations.

'Anything goes...as long as it's on stage.'

What happens after the applause? What are the rules behind closed doors?

[The Bread & Roses Theatre @BreadandRosesTC]

Better Yesterday is a dark comedy that explores the boundaries between public and private; between passion and revulsion; between what is genuine and what is performed.

BETTER YESTERDAY
Bread and Roses Theatre, Clapham
16-20 April, 7pm

Two stage actors, an explosive marriage, and the parasitic public and press. Voyeurism, emotional game-playing, and a battle of the egos.

For transparency: since we're a small and relatively new company, we cannot afford to pay a fee for this project - the little money we have will go towards technical and marketing costs. However, we hope to be able to reimburse travel expenses.
