TERROR

May - July 2019

The internationally successful play Terror is by Ferdinand von Schirach and has been performed all over the world and was first seen in London in 2017 when its UK premiere was presented by the Lyric Hammersmith. It tells of a hijacked plane heading towards a packed football stadium. Ignoring orders to the contrary a fighter pilot shoots the plane down killing 164 people to save 70,000. Put on trial and charged with murder, the fate of the pilot is in the audience’s hands. This was a thrilling and intimate courtroom drama where audiences determined the verdict and the fate of the defendant.

REVIEWS

The direction and choreography was also sublime. Genuinely one of the most fun nights I've had in a theatre in quite a while

The overall performance by the cast and play itself was excellent and we have had no hesitation in recommending it as a must see ..... Surely destined for the West End?

This show would have done credit to the best of West End theatres. The singing especially was superb, and the plot and staging were very funny.

What a great evening’s entertainment. Tunbridge Wells is so lucky... The standard of comic acting is as good as I'd expect in the West End

We enjoyed your Spamalot just as much as when we saw it in the west end. Brilliant show, and your cast's energy amazing -

I went to see the West End Production of One Man Two Guvnors . I thought it was excellent. Last night’s production at Trinity was 10 times better though!! I loved it!

Taking on such an iconic piece is a huge challenge for the team at the Trinity Theatre but it’s a challenge that they have met head on and the result is a great ensemble piece, packed with fun and tremendous musical numbers that makes for the perfect summer night out. ****

One of the most interesting evenings of theatre I’ve enjoyed for some time. John Martin is a fine director who has assembled a strong cast ****
