What's On: They Don’t Really Care About Us

4AM Productions are back after a hugely successful 2023 here to take things to a new level in 2024. Last year, they had a great year firstly taking on Eurovision with the hit show ‘Murder at Cadberry Manor’ that completed a 4 night sold out run at Hope Street Theatre in May. They followed this up with their inaugural horror showcase entitled Book of Horror - Volume 1: Haunting on Hope Street in October which again was sold out and received critical acclaim. 2024 is set to be their biggest year to date with no less than 4 theatre productions and a film in the works. Their latest show comes in May as might just be their most important to date.

Night Out At: Caged Time

Silent Gutter was back with two short one-act plays that were truly Kafkaesque and oppressive.
