a new comedy directed by cal mccrystal

This Way Up is set on a luxury cruise ship, where the small but committed crew provides services and entertainment for the privileged passengers - you, the audience. As a celebration of the end of the century, the show is punctuated by ten musical numbers, one for each decade: see if you can guess what's coming next... The nautical setting has inspired many of the ideas for material, resulting in a show with a bit more focus than a normal sketch revue. However, those of you with sea-sickness should not be afraid and there are life-jackets under your seats and plenty of surprises in store. So, welcome aboard, sit back and enjoy...
