Slapstick Picnic The Importance of Being Earnest Live at Lighthouse: OUTSIDE

A man in a top hat, throws a plate of cucumber sandwiches in the air, some of which have landed on his face. He is smiling, the background is green.

About

Slapstick Picnic would like to cordially invite you to its inaugural summer tea party, where marvellous feats of performance and culinary capers await.

Over tea and cucumber sandwiches, we ask that you prepare to witness the impossible - the entirety of Oscar Wilde’s classic play of manners, affairs and handbags being performed by just two rather dashing entertainers.

From the creators of The HandleBards comes a fantastically wild(e) new production, ripping up the recipe book and celebrating silliness. With Slapstick Picnic, you can have your cake and eat it.

This is part of this year's Lighthouse:OUTSIDE programme, so please bring your own chair or blanket to sit on, they'll be light snacks and beverages to purchase on the day and remember to dress for the weather!
