We’re back to see Tmesis in their latest production, but this time at the Liverpool Everyman. Dreadful Hours differs from previous Tmesis productions in that it includes ‘spoken word’, however, it’s still packed with the energetic physical performance that we’ve come to expect from Yorgos & Eli. Here’s what they say…
When one hour’s dinner can seem like years, yet years seem to pass in a heartbeat…
Combining Tmesis Theatre’s trademark physicality with new writing from acclaimed Northwest playwright Chris Fittock, The Dreadful Hours is a darkly comic drama exploring the quiet disintegration of love’s first flourish through the lifetime of one couple’s relationship. Peepolykus’s master of the ridiculous Javier Marzan directs what is sure to be a wonderfully inventive production full of dark humour and striking visuals.
We’ve organised a pre-show discussion with the writer, Chris Fittock, at 6.30pm in the bar before heading in to see the show.

I think Culturepool’s a really brilliant idea, and hope everyone had good reactions to the show! Thanks to all for coming along.
