Revenge: After the Levoyah. That's it. Sold out. Our DMs wouldn't stop pinging, so we added 5 extra shows. Now they're gone too. Returns only, or try your luck at the door. Good things come to those who queue.

And yesterday: Revenge: After the Levoyah at the Yard Theatre in Hackney Wick. Really funny and I think there was a serious point about antisemitism in London/Essex in there too. Also just a really nice experience visiting that theatre in general - looking forward to when it has more toilets though.

Revenge: After the Levoyah has exploded on the stage, and critics can't stop raving 💥 ★★★★★ "Fearless, unfiltered fantasy" & "compulsively watchable". The verdicts are in and they're unanimous. Guns, helicopters, a rabbi-turned-action-hero—what more could you want? 🔗

Tonight we let the chaos loose. It’s press night for Revenge: After the Levoyah. To our brilliant team, you’ve created something electric. The energy you bring to this show is exactly what theatre should be. And London already knows (aka packed houses and tickets moving fast). Critics, buckle up 😈
