After a break during the spring term, we’re ready to take on the next Gay Beggars production with fresh eyes and new ideas. But first, we’ll start off with a good old Info Evening.

Are you interested in theatre work (on- or off-stage)? Then you should join us!

We will meet on

• Monday, 14.05.18, 6.30pm, Room 11, Nadelberg 6

and

• Wednesday, 16.05.18, 6.30pm, Room 11, Nadelberg 6

If you would like to know more about the production, the play we’ll be working with and what roles we have to offer, you should come say hi! Previous theatre experience is welcome but not necessary.

We’ll have some snacks and drinks so you won’t go hungry or thirsty during the two or so hours we have scheduled.

If you can’t make it to either of the info evenings or need to know more beforehand, get in touch and we’ll send you the important information.

We’re looking forward to a spectacular evening with lots of old and new friends!

We're already working on our next production and we'll soon be back with more information. In the meantime, follow us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram and be among the first to find out what we're up to.

Less than a week until première! Reserve your seats via our reservation form now!

Have you marked the dates of our upcoming show in your calendar, yet? If not, now would be a great time to do so!

While the cast is busy learning lines, why not mark the following dates in your diary already?

We will be performing Our House by Theresa Rebeck on 4, 5, 8, 10, 11, 13, 14, 17 and 18 November 2017.

Shows generally start at 7:30 p.m., except for Sunday 5 November (show starts at 5:00 p.m.). The venue is of course the lovely cellar theatre of the English Seminar of the University of Basel.

Update your diary now and don't miss it!

The info evenings for our upcoming production will take place on the 8th (starting at 18:30) and 9th (starting at 19:30) of May in Room 11 in the English Seminar (Nadelberg 6), and will tell you all you need to know about the production and how you could get involved. We are not only looking for actors and actresses, but are also recruiting for a variety of backstage positions such as stage design, make-up, costumes, lights, bar and box office etc. - if you have a skill you think might be useful, please let us know!

If you cannot make either of the sessions but would still like to get involved, please shoot us an email and we'll make sure you get all the infos!

The play will be Our House by Theresa Rebeck (2009), directed by Laurence Sauter. Theresa Rebeck is an American screenwriter and playwright. Laurence has co-directed last year’s Lords and Ladies and directed parts of the current People Upstairs. As this will be her first solo project, she is super excited to meet you all and kickstart this production.

We hope to see many of you there (there will be cake!)

We're very proud to announce that our play "The People Upstairs - an evening of short plays by Alex Broun" will premiere in just a few weeks time. If you'd like to reserve tickets for one of the six shows you can, as always, get them here!

Show dates: 14th / 18th / 21st / 24th / 26th / 29th April 2017 (all shows at 8 pm)

New info incoming! We'll keep it short and sweet to go with the theme of the new production:

Come by and hear about the plays, get info and meet the directors!

If you're planning on attending, go ahead and mark your interest down on the event's Facebook page so we can have a rough number of attendees, thanks!

Behold the faces you will be able to see on stage in just two weeks' time!
