Theatre Double Bill – Beautiful People and So

Dorchester Arts present a brilliant theatre double-bill from one of the UK’s most inventive and refreshingly provocative theatre companies. Both plays are written and performed by David Woods and Jon Haynes, a 30 year artistic partnership of international acclaim, avant-garde mess and polymathic pursuit of the ever unattainable.

Beautiful People  In an age where death and grieving are medicalised out of existence, the UK’s most enduring theatre double act reclaim humankind’s last taboo from imminent eradication in a paper-fine portrait of a timeless trio: cursed to eternal life without eternal youth.

So… Two long-lost brothers overcome their polarized perception and come together to get something done while sorting through their late mother’s estate –  a joyfully chaotic exchange that somehow embraces everything difficult and wrong in the world and proposes workable solutions.
