Faculty: History | The Old & New Theatre Company

The Old & New Theatre Company is delighted to present their production of Faculty: History.

In the history staff room at a formerly prestigious University. The stage is littered with desks, relics and tomes of vague historical significance. The History Faculty is run by the Chair of the Department - Rosyln Brown. Old Peter creaks in a rocking chair in a back corner. Peter The Younger and Ron Woodward throw rocks into a can. Luke Anderson is away at a conference in Kyoto. Ian Mulligan is attempting to open a jar of marmalade. 

The play is described as a stage sitcom, consisting of three episodes. So, welcome to Faculty: History, a theatre sitcom.
