About the Show:
An ordinary Tuesday turns really, really weird when the sky over the school playground suddenly rips open. Pupils and teachers are sucked up to a parallel universe, whilst a new set of people start raining down from above. 'Us' and 'Them' must come together to work out what is going on, and how they can get things back to how they were.
Alison Carr's play Tuesday is funny and playful, with a little bit of sci-fi and a lot of big themes: friendship, family, identity, grief, responsibility – and what happens when an unexpected event literally turns the world upside-down.

About the show: Nevere is the brightest young witch at Spellwright School for Wizardry, she's got her best friend Taolo, a slightly annoying familiar Cletus, and her loving-if-out-of-touch mom--so why does she feel like something is really wrong? After a school assembly about the dangers of love potions, Nevere snatches her professor's spell book, just a week before the Spring Fling. While giving someone else a love potion may be kinda dicey, what if you could make a love potion . . . for yourself?
NEVERE’S LOVE POTION is a musical about consent, mental health, and the bravery it takes to ask for help.
