Radiant Vermin

By Philip Ridley. 

Following its sell-out, award-nominated, nationally acclaimed premiere last year, Radiant Vermin returns in 2016 with its original lead casting and creative team, playing UK dates in Bristol and London ahead of an OffBroadway New York transfer.

12-14 May, Ttobacco Factory Theatres
17-28 May, Soho Theatre, London
2 June – 3 July, 59E59 Theaters, New York

Ollie and Jill want to tell you about their dream home. Some of the things they did to get it, you might find… shocking. But they want you to know they did it all for their baby

A wickedly comic satire about a young couple offered a way out of the housing crisis, and just how far they’re prepared to go for it.
