Play On Words

The Buxton favourites return with multi-award-winning hit, following sell-out runs in 2006 and 2007. Starring Yaz Al-Shaater, Tom Crawshaw and Michael Grady-Hall.

Play On Words is moving tale of friendship, a knockabout farce of quick witted punning and a surreal blend of theatre and reality – all mixed into one truly unique theatrical experience.

Follow Fred and Eddie, two unwitting halves of a comic double-act, whose ordinary day at the office becomes a race against time to save their long-lost friend Jen – facing cross words, dried fruits and a theatre technician who thinks he’s seen the light!

This new production appears for four nights only in Buxton before heading up to Edinburgh Fringe's top theatre venue The Pleasance. In an act of reckless hubris, Yaz, Tom and Mic will switch the three male parts in the play each night, creating a unique performance each night.
