4 Times Fringe First Winners including 2005

New York City, 1919. At a switchboard exchange on the brink of extinction, three operators stare down the future, desperate to preserve their matriarchy. A mispunctuated, serious-minded peep-show for the brain.

Four times Fringe First winners, the Riot Group were last at Soho with their ground-breaking First of the First Award winning play, Pugilist Specialist. They return with an expanded ensemble in this eagerly awaited new play , commissioned by Soho Theatre, and direct from its Edinburgh premiere.

'It’s hard to imagine more brilliant or arresting new writing.’ Daily Telegraph

‘The Riot Group have a gift for tense, language-driven theatre.’ New York Times

'Sheer theatrical nerve and brilliance in performance.' Scotsman
