Gainsborough Musical Theatre Society

by | 14 April 2024 | Gainsborough, Performing Arts

Gainsborough Musical Theatre Society is hard at work for their next production Our House – a jukebox musical centred around the incredible music of Madness.

Based in 1980s Camden Town, Our House tells the story of London lad Joe Casey, who, on the night of his sixteenth birthday, takes Sarah, the girl of his dreams, out on their first date.

In an effort to impress her with bravado, he breaks into a building site overlooking his home on Casey Street, which is owned by Mister Pressman, a high-end property developer. The police turn up, at which point Joe’s life splits into two: the Good Joe, who stays to help, and Bad Joe, who flees.

Featuring a collection of Madness hits including House of Fun, Baggy Trousers, Driving in my Car, It Must Be Love and of course Our House.

The show will run from Tuesday 18th to Saturday 22nd June, at 7.30pm each day, at the Plowright Theatre in Scunthorpe.

Tickets are £17.00 and available to buy through the group via Facebook (reduced booking fees). Alternatively, they can be purchased at www.scunthorpetheatres.co.uk or via the Baths Hall box office on 01724 296296.
