Our big August musical is the joyous, high-energy Our House, directed by Lee Lyons, with Michelle Radley as Musical Director and Millie-Rae Hall as Choreographer.

Lee previously directed The Wedding Singer for BLODS in 2019. Michelle brings a wealth of experience from productions including The Lion King, Mary Poppins, Beauty and the Beast, and more. Millie-Rae is an exciting emerging choreographer currently working on Urinetown with HMOS Theatre in London.

Set in 1980s Camden, Our House follows Joe Casey on the night his life splits in two — one path leading to responsibility, the other to rebellion. Packed with iconic Madness hits including House of Fun, Baggy Trousers, It Must Be Love, Driving in My Car, and of course Our House, this is a feel-good musical not to be missed.

Performances: 20–22 August 2026

Attwood Theatre, Bexhill

Auditions & familiarisation: April (details coming soon)

Our season opens with BLODS’ first-ever Shakespeare, directed by Aisling Teodorescu

Set in 1940, Much Ado About Nothing is a sparkling comedy of wit, romance, and deception. The sharp-tongued battle between Beatrice and Benedick contrasts with the perilous courtship of Claudio and Hero, as the scheming Don John sets out to sabotage love itself.

The laughs keep rolling with stand-up acts followed by the acclaimed improv group S.I.T to create side-splitting scenes and sketches on the spot where nothing is scripted, and anything can happen!

November sees the return of classic comedy with The Ladykillers, directed by Peter Herbert-Boon
