What we know of New Theatre history is really only hearsay passed down from past generations of students. One fact we do know is that the foyer was built in 2001 after an appeal and a large donation from a fellow called Wallner. Before this, tickets were sold to people from the small box office window, which was the main office at the time, and then the audience stood outside in the cold or heat and waited for the doors to open. The current auditorium door was accessed by a steel fire escape. The facts get blurry if we look further back. One hears stories of an heroic band of students who got together and used their collective will and ingenuity to carve the current theatre out of the Archaeology and Classics building. When this was, no one knows. Were they beautiful, toga-wearing demi-Gods? Again, no one knows. If anyone would like the job of researching New Theatre history please e-mail our Secretary, Nick: secretary@newtheatre.org.uk.

4th - 7th June
The pilgrimage tradition is turned on its head in this spectacular production as two jaded American women take a trip to India. Plagued by their pasts, Katherine Brynne and Margaret Civil travel the length and breath of the country looking to 'heal' their souls. In their adventures, they are accompanied by none other than the elephant-headed God, Ganesh! Fluid in his guises, he appears before them in different forms-from a Japanese tourist to a leper-until a breathtaking release arrives for both women at his hands.
Doors 7.15pm
