The Fitzrovia Radio Hour presents… FIVE weeks, THREE shows, TWO venues!
Tickets!
1940s-inspired radio plays performed with live sound effects and cut-glass theatricality!
Since October 2008 The Fitzrovia Radio Hour have conceived, written and performed twelve monthly shows of original comedy material - in their home underneath Shakespeare's Globe!
Now, over FIVE weeks they present THREE self-contained shows of their best material in TWO exciting venues!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
One...
GANGSTERS! MONSTERS! IMPOSTERS!
'The Man Who Was Ten Minutes Late'
A pilot breaks the sound barrier for Britain, only to let loose a decidedly familiar imposter. Would science be better left alone?
'It Came from the Black Abyss'
In the remote mid-Atlantic a British vessel struggles against a secret terror from the deep!
'Whisky in the Jar'
Even death cannot stop a notorious gangster drinking deep from the well of revenge!

Two...
THE DRIVEN! THE DECADENT! THE DAMNED!
‘The Queen of Nimruth’
The archaeological find of the ages! An exhibition which thrills London! But is an ancient evil about to be reborn?
'Leinigen and the North Star'
In the frozen wastes, a mysterious figure rescues stranded travelers. Set the compass for adventure!
‘Survival of the Fittest’
Dartmoor. The leading aristocrats of 1912 gather for the hunt. Their prey? The ultimate quarry. Man.

Three...
AMBITION! EXPLORATION! INVASION!
‘He Should Have Known His Place’
A lathe-worker from Leeds, consumed by ambition beyond his station, like Icarus flies too close to the sun...
‘Leinigen and the North Pole’
The story continues! Our hero leads a death- and bear-defying exploration of the iciest extremes!
‘Mudmen from the Thames’
From the river they come! Only Professor Quested can save the civilised world from this deadly threat!
