Susan & Darren — Quarantine and Company Fierce

Archived Show

Susan & Darren is an 'event with dancing' created with and performed by Darren Pritchard and his mum, Susan. Susan is 55 and Darren is 30. Darren lives at home with Susan in the house he grew up in. Darren is a dancer and Susan cleans, for Darren, and professionally.

Developed by Quarantine and Company Fierce with writer Sonia Hughes and choreographer Jane Mason, this dark, joyous and intimate show invites audiences into Susan and Darren's world as they prepare for one of their infamous parties, visited along the way by friends and neighbours who pop in via video interviews.

"With a buffet and disco thrown in, this really is a little gem of a show" ****
WHAT'S ON STAGE

A huge hit at its Manchester premiere in 2006, and when touring internationally in 2008, Susan & Darren is presented here in London for the very first time.

Darren Pritchard will lead a dance workshop before each performance of Susan & Darren, which will alter the course of that night's show. All ages and levels of dance experience are welcome. Free to ticket-holders, but booking is essential.

"Intimate, life-affirming, utterly magical and unmissable"
