The Marlowe Studio to Presents Two Premiere Works Next Year

The work of two exciting talents will be premiered at The Marlowe Studio early next year in a new play made by the venue.

Run The Beast Down is playwright Titas Halder's debut full-length production and opens in Canterbury before transferring to London. It will be directed by award-winning Hannah Price, founder of Theatre Uncut and director of several critically-acclaimed plays, and produced by The Marlowe Theatre and Libby Brodie Productions.

An exhilarating theatrical journey performed with a live electronic score, Run The Beast Down is a boundary-pushing hybrid piece of theatre and music, combining elements of storytelling, dark comedy and magical realism with a pulsing soundtrack.

Charlie has stopped sleeping. His neighbour's cat has been dismembered. And worse, he's being haunted by an urban fox. In a haze of neon-soaked insomnia lines blur between reality and fantasy. What are they up to? Whatever it is, it's big. The mystery twists its way towards a dead rabbit, a city in flames and a Kendall mint cake-fuelled murderous showdown.
