A bold, provocative drama that dives into the shifting power dynamics of toxic relationships.
After a sold-out, 5-star run at the Voila! Theatre Festival, SPENT is transferring to the Old Red Lion Theatre for a two-week run from 18–29th March 2025.
When A, an ambitious executive, and B, a struggling artist, reach a breaking point, they must decide: stay together or go their separate ways? As their love unravels through work struggles, botched Valentine’s dinners, and bizarre dragon dildos, the question lingers—who’s at fault and, more worryingly, who holds the power?
With two actors alternating roles each night, SPENT flips the script on how we perceive control and abuse, challenging assumptions and proving that power can shift regardless of gender.
Book now and experience both versions of the story. Previous reviewers found that watching both versions of SPENT provided a fuller experience and a deeper understanding of the project. The gender swap fundamentally changes how audiences perceive power dynamics.
