Rum
Written & Performed by Joe Mallalieu, RUM is a darkly humorous and powerful new award-winning play that wrestles with masculinity, mental health and addiction in the trade.
Meet Danny, plastering since he was a kid, he’s not scared of anything, he’s RUM.
Danny’s been up all night and now he’s rushing to finish a job before he has to give the speech of his life.
"This plaster will outlive me. I shape these rooms but in turn they have moulded me. Hiding secrets. Weak spots made to look strong."
WINNER – Broadway Baby Bobby Award.

“Dazzlingly authentic” ★★★★ The Scotsman.
