Wit, Suspense and Dark Humor

Two hitmen await their next assignment. Thrust into a claustrophobic basement, Ben and Gus must face a series of bizarre, increasingly urgent messages sent from a service lift. This gripping play is filled with sharp dialogue, masterfully combining suspense and dark humor. THE DUMB WAITER is a story that teases the boundaries of power, trust, and the absurdity of existence.

Tickets are free and can be reserved online beginning at 12pm the day before each performance.
