A nurse, a delivery driver, and an entrepreneur walk into a speed awareness course…



Abz is the UK’s leading expert on road safety and the most in-demand course facilitator north of the M25.



In an entirely average hotel basement somewhere in Birmingham, three speedsters are summoned to his class with a choice: change your ways, or lose your licence.



But a routine training course quickly veers into a tumultuous group therapy session as they are forced to confront the real question: why are you all so angry?



SPEED is a break-neck journey through the daily annoyances and deep-buried secrets that leave us spinning. Hilarious and heartfelt, this world premiere production reunites writer Mohamed-Zain Dada and director Milli Bhatia after the wild success of the Olivier Award-nominated, Blue Mist (Royal Court).

Student Blog: The Tempest: Revisited
by Student Blogger: Leah Fridman - Dec 7, 2024


At the end of the day actors, professional or not, are all those same kids who would make up plays to perform at family gatherings, would break into song whenever so moved during recess, and dance like no one is watching even if everyone is.

by Ilana Lucas - Nov 19, 2024


If the 2020s have occasionally uncomfortably reminded you of the 1920s, you’re not alone.

At the Theatre Centre, Tall Poppy Productions presents a new work written and directed by Judy Reynolds, THE BEE’S KNEES, a fictional tale of one of the first women to run for Canadian parliament in the early 1920s.
