Radiant Vermin by Philip Ridley

Friday, April 18th - Saturday, May 3rd

Starring

Rain Matkin as Jill

Eli Yaschuk as Ollie

Holly Turner as Mis Dee

“We’d like to tell you about our home. Our dream home. How we got it. We’re good people. We hope we are. We try to be. And yet some of the things we’ve done- well… they’re not exactly nice. In fact they’re horrible. Some might even say shocking. But I’m sure once we’ve explained why we did what we did- then you’ll understand.”

An engaging young couple, Ollie and Jill, want to tell you about their dream home. Some of the things they did to get it, you might find shocking. But they want you to know they did it all for their baby. A wickedly comic satire about a young couple offered a ‘too good to be true’ way onto the property ladder.

Philip Ridley’s new play is a darkly funny morality play about a hot theatrical topic of the moment: the housing crisis. Fast-paced, provocative, and viciously sharp, this outrageous black comedy is a meditation on how far we will go to satisfy – and justify – materialistic greed, and how decent people are driven by desperation to stifle their consciences. Jill and Ollie develop an insatiable need for more. As a line in the play says, “enough is never enough.”

The CKUA Events Calendar is a listing of music, arts, and culture happenings for the whole province. It is a terrific resource that CKUA offers to the community, to share details about concerts, gallery openings, plays, and films.

Please note that due to the amount of listings, we publish events that focus on music, arts, or culture. While we'd love to publish all submitted items, the sheer number of events means that we sometimes have to decline submissions.

Email details to feedback@ckua.com and the CKUA team of calendar volunteers will do the rest.
