Bathtub Oncology
Haddock Theatre
A dark comedy about family, finality, and failing organs.
Set in a not too distant dystopian UK, where the NHS has all but collapsed, Simon has been diagnosed with cancer. Disappointingly, he can’t afford the treatment to zap it. Along with his lacklustre career choices and inability to hold down a girlfriend, life is looking pretty bleak.
The second production from Haddock Theatre Company, Bathtub Oncology is an exploration of the family unit with themes of class, institution, government, and health.
