Home, I'm Darling!
26th September-4th October 2025
By Laura Wade
Directed by Heather Bradford

Book Tickets

Reading: 1st August 2025
Auditions: 3rd & 4th August 2025

Judy's obsession with 1950s homemaking hides deeper cracks beneath the seemingly idyllic surface. Witty, stylish and thought-provoking, this Olivier Award-Winning comedy unpacks important questions about nostalgia, gender roles and the illusion of the perfect life.

Contains adult themes and language.

'Cupcakes, cocktails and a clean home - one woman's quest to be the exemplary 1950s housewife.'

Reading and Audition Info.

Our readings are social occasions where members of the public are welcome to join us reading the play! They give a sense of the play, and the director's vision, but they are not auditions and are open to all. The reading for Home, I'm Darling! will be at 7:30pm at the theatre on 1st August 2025.

The cast comprises of 3 females (1 20s-30s, 1 30s-40s and 1 60+) and 3 males (1 20s-30s, 2 30s-40s). Auditions will be held at 7:30pm on 3rd and 4th August at the theatre. You do not need to attend both dates and do not need to book to audition, just turn up!
