They will be bringing l comedy drama Down to Chance and hilarious PowerPoint farce Sorry (I Broke Your Arms and Legs) to the Pleasance Theatre this April.
It has been announced that theatre company and Pleasance Associate Artists Maybe You Like It will be making their London debut this spring with a double bill of shows.
Following sell out runs for both at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, this double bill will offer London audiences the chance to experience the company’s work.
Down to Chance presents a madcap take on the incredible true story of a community in crisis following the Great Alaskan Earthquake. Set in 1964 in Anchorage, the play follows a part-time radio reporter, her teenage intern, a General on leave and a local hobbyist who all find themselves at the centre of a remarkable relief effort. The cast is set to include: Ellie Jay Cooper (Pleading Stupidity, UK Tour; Liars, ITV; Patrick the Pug, Disney) as Genie Chance and Robert Merriam (Hamlet, Vienna’s English Theatre; Police Cops the Original, Edinburgh Fringe; Pleading Stupidity, tour); together they take on over 20 characters in this slick 70-minute thriller.
Meanwhile, Sorry (I Broke Your Arms and Legs) sees a young Sam Wilson making his
case with a riotous PowerPoint presentation. Determined to prove he is the correct choice for Head Boy, performer James Akka (Talamasca, Netflix; The Sandman, Netflix, Thanks A Lot, Milton Jones!, BBC Radio 4) brings the comedy to life.
Both shows will run at the Pleasance Theatre from the 22nd April until the 9th May.
