The Strange Undoing of Prudencia Hart

Overview

This 2011 Edinburgh Fringe Festival hit combines two great things, theatre and the pub. Well, if you're going to set a play in a pub you might as well perform it in a pub so the audience can enjoy a pint at the same time, right? Even if your other half isn't as excited as you are about Auckland Arts Festival, you're bound to be able to win them over with this venue.

One wintry morning uptight academic Prudencia Hart stops in at a pub on her way home from a conference in Kelso, a town in the Scottish Borders. As she pulls up a chair, a blizzard sets in. Little does she know who or what awaits her. Prudencia's dream-like journey of self-discovery unfolds in and around the whisky drinking audience. This play  is the lock-in to end all lock-ins - settle in and enjoy an evening of wickedly good theatre, live music and strange encounters.
