Theatre Souk is now Closed....please vacate the building.
theatredelicatessen would like to say a massive thank you to the incredible companies who made up what was indeed the pop-up theatre event of the year, and of course to the audience members who came to join in with the fun and mayhem. Critical and Audience feedback was incredible - not to mention 3 nominations for this years' OffWestEnd Awards, the 'Offies': Best Production Theatre Souk at theatredelicatessen, Best Event Theatre Souk at theatredelicatessen and Best Actor Neil Connolly in Matador at Theatre Souk at Theatre Delicatessen.
Next Week @ Picton Place: Contractions
Emma fancies Darren. But her sales figures have dropped dramatically. Her manager is concerned.
Clearly, the situation needs to be resolved.

Fly Theatre presents
Contractions by Mike Bartlett.
Mike Bartlett (Earthquakes in London, Cock)’s absurd comedy about the delicate line between our working and private lives premiered at the Royal Court in 2008 to critical acclaim.
Fly’s stark new revival, staged in a real office, invites the audience to join Emma’s meeting as it tumbles towards chaos…
Come in. Sit down. How are you?
“We are careering towards a society, Bartlett implies, that sees all and understands nothing... [the script is] grotesquely funny - and it chills to the bone." – The Times (2008) on Contractions
26 - 30 October, 2010 - 8pm
An extra lunchtime performance at 1pm on 27th Oct
(Running time approx 50mins).
Cast: Abigail Rokison and Holly Beth Morgan

DYS-PLA festival
theatredelicatessen is proud to support this festival of work by dyslexic playwrights. Please continue our support by spreading the word.
"msft has consistently worked with dyslexic practitioners since 2007 to raise awareness of the creative benefits neuro-diversity brings to the arts. From our humble beginnings in pub venues, under previous festival titles of 'Dys(the)lexi' and 'dyssing-mondys', we celebrate our biggest venture so far, the DYS-PLA festival of new plays by dyslexic writers.
"We kick off the C festival with a Charity Gala night and wine reception, with our Special guest, Jim Cartwright, who will host the tour-de-force of dyslexic creativity. The evening will present extracts from each play programmed throughout the week, along with a full scale production of Matthew Scurfield's dramatised autobiography, 'I Could be Anyone'. Over the DYS-PLA "Festival week, (2-6th November) we will present a double bill of the following titles: Cheery Cack, written by Susan Sainsbury, directed by Janet Palmer, The Death Of Norman Tortilla, written by Charlotte Coates, directed by Tom Latter, Just a Game, written by Paul Hine, directed by Emily Jenkins and Susanna, written by N N Rakshin, directed by Adam Marchan."
