Previews of two of Curve’s spring shows, Susan and Darren and Ghost Boy.

Quarantine and Company Fierce
SUSAN & DARREN Wed 19 – Sat 22 May, 7.45pm

Susan Pritchard is Darren Pritchard’s mother. She is fifty-five and he is thirty. Darren lives at home with Susan, in the house he grew up in. Darren is a dancer. Susan cleans for Darren, and cleans professionally. They dance together at home to Althea and Donna, John Holt and Diana Ross. You’d spot that they were mother and son instantly.

You are now invited to help them prepare for one of their infamous parties, by joining them for a buffet, chat, drink and a dance after the show. Friends and neighbours will pop in via video interviews.

Meet Susan and Darren in a free pre-show dance workshop at 6.15pm that will alter the course of that night’s show. All ages and abilities are welcome. Pre-booking this Experience Curve activity is essential due to limited availability. Please book your place when booking for the performance.

Tickets: £12-£14, concessionary discounts available.
