Chris Wood ‘Death in the Theatre’ at The Milton Rooms
Chris Wood “Death in Theatre” Show
Date: Thursday 19th March 2026
Time: 7.30pm
Location: The Milton Rooms
Tickets: £16.50 (£15 + £1.50 booking fee)
Britain’s theatrical wonderland has been a cornerstone of culture for centuries, delighting and thrilling audiences with an assembly of exhilarating spectacles. Beyond the trodden boards and tucked neatly behind the curtain, however, lies a catalogue of real life destruction and grisly murder that our greatest tragedians would surely be proud to have presided over. Tread the bloodied boards of Britain’s theatres and witness the deathly dramas that have played out so dramatically within them..
Death in the Theatre collects an astonishing selection of startling tragedies from Britain’s throng of theatres. There is something especially staggering when the player exits life on their adorned stage, and yet, with this by no means an infrequent occurrence, death has made many a fearful cameo appearance – stalking the stalls and grimly reaping the galleries in its macabre and relentless fashion.
Learn of outrageous tragedy such as the young man mauled to death by a lion in a Gloucester theatre, and the unfortunate victim killed in the Dumfries Theatre Royal – quite literally – by the limelight.
THIS PERFORMANCE IS NOT SUITABLE FOR UNDER-14s.
