TNL - High Fever
Wed 4th June, Sat 7th June, Thurs 12th June at 19:30

Theatre National de Luxembourg presents

           HIGH FEVER The Paranoia Project

Don’t freak out: if you think they're out to get you, you're not alone. Paranoia, once assumed to afflict only schizophrenics, may be a lot more common than previously thought. According to valid research nearly one in four Londoners, for instance, regularly has paranoid thoughts.

Departing from the comfort zone, High Fever sets out on a strange, deranged and savage journey in the minds of poets, writers, singers and other explorers of the paranoid existence.  This is a deliriously damaged, darkly comical performance about shame, excess and paranoia.

Tickets: €20

Location: Theatre National du Luxembourg (196 route de Longwy,, Luxembourg-Merl, L-1940)
Grand Theatre - Noises Off
Thu 13th & Fri 14th June at 20:00 PLUS Sun 15th June at 17:00

Grand Theatre presents 

     Noises Off

Often hailed as the most successful British comedy of the 20th century, this high-energy classic is structured as a play within a play, offering a hilarious behind-the-scenes look at the inner workings of a theatre production. The plot revolves around a troupe of actors on a disastrous provincial tour with a mediocre farce called ‘Nothing On.’ As the play progresses, we get to witness the chaos and mishaps that occur on stage and backstage during the rehearsals and performances, including flubbed lines, misplaced props, malfunctioning set pieces, romantic entanglements, and personal rivalries. The play is known for its intricate timing, physical comedy, and fast-paced action, making it a favourite among audiences and theatre practitioners alike.
