Arcola Theatre
Damian attended the play ‘The Double Act’ at Arcola Theatre in London on February 1, 2025. The Arcola, a radical and trailblazing theatre in the heart of East London will be running the play until February 22, 2025.
‘The Double Act’ is “an incredibly witty and fiercely topical dark comedy that keeps audiences on their toes,” says one theatre review.
Damian spoke after the show stating, “I’ve just been here seeing The Double Act by Mark Jagasia, directed by the brilliant Oscar Pearce. Weird. I loved the play. Dazzling, funny; a very, very funny surreal take on the appalling comedy of some of our erstwhile comedy performers. I’ve had a wonderful evening here at the Arcola Theatre.”
The play is described as: In a crumbling coastal town, a fading comedian is forced to confront his estranged ex-partner – a deranged recluse fixated on their distant heyday – in a tale of guilt, ambition and the ghosts of British show-business.
