Stevenage Lytton Players

17/06/2026

🎭 AUDITIONS 🎭

A dark comic thriller from In Bruges writer Martin McDonagh, where his signature dark humour, storytelling, violence, and truth collide in a police interrogation room. 🕯️📝

Katurian, a writer of short stories that often depict violence against children, has been arrested by two detectives, Ariel and Tupolski, because some of his stories resemble recent child murders. 🚔🔦

When he hears that his brother Michal has confessed to the murders and implicated Katurian, he resigns himself to being executed - but attempts to save his stories from destruction. 📚🔥

The play contains both animation and narration of several of Katurian’s stories, including the autobiographical “The Writer and the Writer’s Brother”, which tells how Katurian developed his disturbed imagination by hearing the sounds of Michal being tortured by their parents. 🖋️🎞️

🎭 Ordinary Days comes to the Lytton Theatre!

From one of musical theatre’s most exciting new composers, Adam Gwon, Ordinary Days is a refreshingly honest, funny, and heartfelt story about making real connections in the city that never sleeps (but probably should at some point).

Follow four young New Yorkers whose lives unexpectedly intertwine as they search for fulfilment, happiness, love… and the occasional cab. With a vibrant, memorable score and moments that feel strikingly true to life, this original musical captures the beauty and chaos of modern city living.

Blending humour with real poignancy, Ordinary Days celebrates how millions of individual stories collide in surprising ways to make New York City such an extraordinary place to call home.

🎨 We’re also delighted to be collaborating with Herts Visual Arts, with live artists creating work on stage during the performances, plus a special art exhibition taking place between the Saturday matinee and evening performance.

📍 The Lytton Theatre, Stevenage, SG1 5PZ
📅 Thursday 2nd July - Saturday 4th July 2026 | 7:45pm/2pm
✨ If you’ve ever felt lost in a busy world (or found joy in the small moments), this one’s for you.

🎭 CASTING CALL: The Great British Bake Off Musical 🎭

We’re looking for someone to play Phil Hollinghurst in The Great British Bake Off Musical!

📍 Rehearsals: Monday & Wednesday evenings at 7:45pm
📍 Performances: 21st–24th October 2026
📍 Venue: The Stevenage Lytton Theatre

🥐 Role: Phil Hollinghurst
Male, 50s+

For legal purposes, he is definitely not Paul Hollywood… 👀

Phil Hollinghurst is a handsome Liverpudlian baker, famous for his stern judging style and coveted handshakes that signify baking excellence. He takes his role as a judge very seriously, with a razor-sharp eye for detail that makes him a tough critic. Beneath the steely exterior, however, there’s a softer side that emerges in his interactions with Pam and Babs.

If you’re interested in the role, please comment below or message our page to get in touch!

And if you know someone perfect for the part, tag them in the comments 👇
