Snapdragon Productions and Theatre Bench present the world premiere of

Teddy

By Tristan Bernays

Music by Dougal Ivine

"An absolute blast of a night, a fun, punchy, poignant homage to London's past." ★★★★ Time Out

"A game changer that pushes the music integrated play forwards." ★★★★ The Stage

 

"Energy and invention abound. Remarkable." 

★★★★ Evening Standard

Elephant and Castle. 1956. Saturday night.

 

Teddy and Josie are about to hit the streets of London for a good time. It’s pissing it down, they’re totally skint, and someone wants them dead – but a little trouble never stopped a Ted from having a good time. Desperate times call for rock ‘n’ roll.

 

Teddy is a punchy, lyrical ride though the dark and damaged world of 1950s London. Featuring a blistering live performance from Johnny Valentine and The Broken Hearts and an electrifying original score by Dougal Irvine.

 

Expect sex, violence and damn good hair.
