Susan And Darren is an ‘event with dancing’ created with and performed by Darren Pritchard and his mum, Susan.
Susan is 55 and Darren is 30. Darren lives at home with Susan in the house he grew up in. Darren is a dancer and Susan cleans, for Darren, and professionally.
Developed with writer Sonia Hughes and choreographer Jane Mason, this dark, joyous and intimate show invites audiences into Susan and Darren’s world as they prepare for one of their infamous parties, visited along the way by friends and neighbours who pop in via video interviews.
A huge hit at its Manchester premiere in 2006, and when touring internationally in 2008, Susan And Darren is presented in London for the very first time at Sadler’s Wells.
Darren Pritchard leads a dance workshop before each performance of Susan And Darren, which alters the course of that night’s show. All ages and levels of dance experience are welcome. Free to ticket-holders, but booking is essential.
Theatregoers younger than five years old will not be admitted to Susan And Darren.
