Original Theatre is currently streaming to over 50 countries, including America, India, Canada and Australia – and is on stage in Leeds from tomorrow (April 2-6).
The company completely ignores the space-time paradox to stream a recording of its 2023 production of H G Wells' The Time Machine at the same time it is touring its current cast to Leeds Playhouse and other venues.
The comedy version of the famous - and not at all funny - original was nominated for an Olivier award (though admittedly only for Outstanding Achievement in Affiliate Theatre, one of the top awards probably), and shares a style in common with The Goes Wrong Show - indeed, Time Machine cast member Dave Hearn was in last year's Goes Wrong Show. He appears here alongside Michael Dylan, George Kemp and Amy Revelle.
Good fun, and not a scrap of real science anywhere in the script...
