Early Doors

by Not Too Tame Theatre

site-specific-and-immersive, theatre

Early Doors is the multi- award winning celebration of community spirit and pub culture.

about the production

First night under new management! A brother and sister open up the family pub for the firs time after the recent passing of their Mum. Nestle yourself among the regulars as they find their voices through love, loss, laughter and a pub quiz. An hour-long, site specific experience with all the great qualities of a gig. With live music, comedy and a great big heart this is the best ticket in town for an electric night out. Drown your sorrows or charge your glasses. but grab a pint, take a seat and get a load of this!

Early Doors is site-specific and takes place in a real pub (N.B. there are no minimum stage measurements, these all depend on the pub) local to the venue.
Not Too Tame will help the venue find the best local to serve the production. There are no other tech requirements.

Early Doors appeals to those who have little or no engagement with arts.

The company’s stated intention is to engage audiences who don’t feel they belong in “tame, polite theatre”, and they do this with great charm and energy.
