A Bright Room Called Day

by Tony Kushnerdirected by Marlowe Mitchell
Wednesday 17th – Saturday 20th June 2026

What do you do when your world is spiralling out of control?

Berlin, 1933. In a modest apartment, the laughter and political discussions of a group of friends mingle as the shadow of tyranny creeps closer. Years later, the questions still burn, when the world changes towards prejudice and injustice, do we resist, comply, or look away?

From the mind of Tony Kushner (Angels In America), A Bright Room Called Day is a portrait of friendship, fear, and the peril of doing nothing in the face of oppression. Spanning nearly 100 years, it asks how ordinary people respond when faced with impossible decisions, and shines a light on how our choices echo across decades.
