The Upstanding Member
Christmas is a time for a little mix up here and there, but when you happen to be in politics, those mistakes can come back to haunt you. Rival Theatre are bringing the beauty of farce to the stage. This searing satire of British politics addresses everything from phone hacking to freedom of the press. Set on Christmas Eve, the prominent politician in the middle of all this mess has six guests turning up for dinner – whether he wants them to or not.
