Tom Basden’s satire Party will transfer to the Arts Theatre, March 1 – 13. Phil Breen will direct the production.

The comedy focuses on four young idealists who have decided to form a new political party to save the world from itself and who find that a new friend wants to save the world from them. The company will feature the playwright along with Tim Key, Jonny Sweet, Anna Crilly, and Katy Wix.

Party premiered at last year’s Edinburgh Fringe, earning awards for Key (Edinburgh Comedy Award), Sweet (Best Newcomer), and Basden (Fringe First).
