The Man who was Thursday
Sword fights, car chases, and conspiracies collide as poet Rosamund Gregory is recruited by a secret police agency to seek revenge on the anarchists who destroyed her home. But as the chaos unfolds into twists upon turns, nothing (and no one) is quite what (who) it (they) seems (seem)...

New Brighton-based theatre company, The Department of Ulterior Motives (DUM) presents a daring adaptation of G.K. Chesterton’s metaphysical thriller, The Man Who Was Thursday. This explosive re-imagining features plenty of low-budget high-octane action amidst an absurdist anarchic adventure!’

Reviews


I couldn’t tear my eyes away... one of the best absurdist plays I’ve ever seen!

- EdFringe Review (for A Matter of Life and Debt, Relish Theatre, written and co-directed by Samuel Masters for Relish Theatre), ★★★★

Hyper imaginative, highly original!

- The Scotsman (for A Matter of Life and Debt, Relish Theatre, written and co-directed by Samuel Masters for Relish Theatre), ★★★★

He has managed some theatrical coups in this production... a welcome return, Masters is one to watch
