The Dumb Waiter

Date: Tuesday, Sep 24 2019 - Saturday, Sep 28 2019
Venue: Alma Tavern & Theatre

Alma residents Schoolhouse Productions stage Harold Pinter’s best-known short play.

Gus and Ben are two hit-men awaiting their next job in the basement of a derelict building.

Into the waiting silence rattles the dumb waiter with extraordinary demands for dishes they cannot supply – and who is operating the dumb waiter in an empty house? In a while their victim will come and they will know what to do.

Exclusive collabs from Bristol’s favourite food vendors, available for one night only. Be first to grab your free copy of the EatDrink24/7 guide – plus every ticket comes with a free limited-edition beer can.
