“We were so ridiculously over in love.
Funny, wasn’t it?
Horribly funny.”
A sparkling success in Tunbridge Wells and a triumph on the Isle of Wight… the tour continues!
Glamorous, rich, reckless… and divorced.
Elyot and Amanda once shared a passionate marriage—and a notoriously explosive breakup. But when fate reunites them on adjoining hotel balconies, old flames reignite with ferocious speed. Their fiery reunion sends their new marriages into comic chaos, with love, laughter, and lunacy erupting in every direction.
Following rave reviews at Trinity Theatre, Tunbridge Wells and a sold-out run at the Apollo Theatre, Isle of Wight, Noël Coward’s timeless comedy of manners is now dazzling audiences across the UK.
This acclaimed revival of Private Lives stars Dionysus favourites Lauren Whedbee and Robert Tremayne in the iconic roles originated by Coward and Gertrude Lawrence in 1930. They are joined by David Upcraft and Kelly Verstappen as the bewildered spouses caught in the line of fire.
Directed by founding member Vicky Newman, fresh from her celebrated production of The Woman in White, this stylish and razor-sharp staging delivers elegance, romance, and Coward’s trademark wit in glorious abundance.

THE CURIOUS CASE OF DR JEKYLL & MR HYDE
Touring UK theatres from August 2026 – June 2027
London, 1888.
Terror grips the city.
In the back alleys of Whitechapel and the drawing rooms of Fitzrovia, a shadow moves — ruthless, remorseless, and barely human. Whispers spread of a “sneering Satan” haunting the streets, as mutilated bodies appear and the fog thickens with secrets.
Meanwhile, the distinguished Dr Henry Jekyll — scientist, philanthropist, and man of vision — pursues a radical theory behind closed doors. Determined to divide the dual nature of man, he risks everything: his reputation, his sanity, and the woman he loves.
But beneath the gaslight and gore, something festers —
a secret too terrible to name, and too late to stop.
This bold new adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson’s gothic masterpiece is brought to life by Robert Tremayne, Artistic Director of Dionysus Theatre. With a striking steampunk design, a haunting original soundscape, and a cast of five in a whirlwind of roles, The Curious Case of Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde is a psychological thriller for the modern stage — part mystery, part nightmare, and wholly unforgettable.
