THE GRIM

Following the success of its first rehearsed reading at The Nutshell in November 2023, we are thrilled to welcome back award-winning writer Edmund Morris’ latest play The Grim for a preview show ahead of its run at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. Hilarious, horrifying, and high octane, this event is not to be missed.

Tickets are on sale now, and all proceeds will go towards covering the show’s production costs ahead of its world premiere at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival this summer. 

So grab a ticket, grab a drink (or two!) from our in-house bar, and get ready for an evening of explosive theatre.

CAST AND CREATIVES

SYNOPSIS

London, 1964. 

Shaun is just trying to get through another dull day as one of London’s premier undertakers. Robert, his assistant, is a superstitious wreck.

Both want nothing more than to clock off early and get to the sanctity of the local pub, but on the day they’re due to fit recently deceased murderer, Jackie Gallagher, for his coffin, and with strange happenings afoot, all is not as it seems…
