About the show
After Four AM is a new writing show from After Four AM Productions set in the world of a late-night bar. Thea is eager to start work as a bartender at her local nightclub, while head bartender Nike dreams of something bigger. Meanwhile, the general manager has his eye on Thea, and a fellow bartender pursues a different kind of connection. This is a show with flair — blending drama, comedy and physical theatre into a vivid portrait of night-shift life and its complicated relationships.
Why see this show?
Slick, theatrical and buzzing with energy — After Four AM mixes physical theatre with sharp new writing and a cast of characters you'll be rooting for and worried about in equal measure. A bold, ambitious show from an amateur company that clearly has something to say.
