Friday night comedy at the Grey Horse

Welcome to the home of Kingston's original and longest running comedy night. 

A night of irresistible improv comedy from some of London's finest players. Kickstart the weekend with a razor-sharp, spontaneous, brand new and never-to-be-seen-again show that will leave you saying, like after ALL the best nights out, "you really had to be there…"

You'll be asked for suggestions which will be turned into unforgettable scenes, characters, and songs, all made up right there on the spot. Had a particularly eventful night out recently? They might just ask you about it… 

13th January - Nabil Abdulrashid, Kathryn Mather, Jenny Collier

Friday, January 13th - Sunday, January 15th

Macbeth at The Rose Theatre

A drum! A drum! Macbeth doth come!

Just moments after victory in combat, Macbeth and Banquo are met with three figures in the mist, and three prophecies of good fortune to come. And so begins the tyranny and the torment of a man hell-bent on power. This gritty, fast-paced take on Shakespeare's most famous tragedy is a co-production between the Rose Theatre and the Staatstheater in Oldenburg, Kingston's twin-town in Germany and features alumni of the Rose Young Company.

Turn, hell-hound, turn...
