The Dice House
Audiences LOVED Woolton Drama Group's production of: ‘The Dice House'
A play by Paul Lucas, inspired by Luke Rhinehart's novel ‘The Dice Man'. Hilariously funny and filled with unexpected twists and turns, The Dice House unfolds in a commune run by maverick psychiatrist Dr Ratner where the patients are encouraged to surrender all their decisions to the roll of the dice. When Ratner's rival Dr Drabble hurls one of his own patients into the clinic to kidnap an inmate - his wife - a comic romp of Pythonesque proportions ensues. The Dice House is a glorious glimpse of how insane life could be if determined by the dice - and how ordinary it can be if it isn't!
PLEASE NOTE: this play contains adult themes and some strong language. It may be unsuitable for younger children. Recommended age: 15+
St Hilda's Church Hall, Hunts Cross, L25 0NG
