CHOAS, panic, disorder, murder, secrets and lies come under the spotlight at the Davenham Theatre.

K.C. Finn’s Dark Moments explores life through the lens of three one-act plays where black comedy and gritty realism collide.

In ‘Passengers’, cabin fever takes hold of a band of holidaymakers on a late night flight, suspicion and paranoia driving them to breaking point.

‘Male Black’ sees a group of friends sitting down to a dinner party, when their common acquaintance Jimmy Black arrives.

Black drives a rift into the group, one that can only be resolved by murder.

Finally, in ‘Other People’s Violence’, the themes of isolation and loneliness are explored. Four people live in neighbouring flats, and one of them is about to die.

The story follows the lives of these characters through their disasters, revelations and breakthroughs, until the grim prophecy comes true.

The one-act plays are being staged at the Davenham Theatre in Church Street, Davenham, from Thursday, April 27 to Sunday, April 30.

Dark Moments was premiered last year at Chester Little Theatre, and is being brought to the Davenham Theatre by Urban Trendz Productions.

The doors and the bar open at 7.30pm, and the performance starts at 8pm.
