Join us for our next Script Social, in association with Nick Hern Books, as we journey to 1889 for a discussion of James Fritz’sThe Flea, described by WhatsOnStage as“ambitious, imaginative, and unashamedly unfettered by convention”. Get together with other young theatremakers to delve into, dissect and discuss this genre-defying satire, as it enjoys its second run at The Yard Theatre.


You can get a taster of the script here.

The Flea

July 1889, London. A flea bites a rat. A rat spooks a horse. A horse kicks a man. As the chain reaction continues, a boy and his mother find themselves swept up in a national scandal that will reshape both their lives – and the country.
