Made for empty theatres, Dot. Dot. Dot. is Kitson's satirical account of six ridiculous months experienced largely from a safe distance, almost immediately misremembered and retold here so inaccurately as to be, very nearly fictional. Conceived and written specifically to be performed in and streamed from empty theatres with audience capacity limited to that of each venue, this will hopefully be a lot more fun than it sounds. Grab your ticket today.  How it will work Firstly, please buy one ticket per person rather than, per household -  the show is still being written and may develop in a direction where it is best experienced individually on individual devices. Secondly, the way this will work is that you’ll receive an email upon booking to confirm your tickets, you’ll then receive a second email a few days before the show giving you some technical advice, should you need it and then, on the day of the show, an hour before the performance, you’ll receive a third email containing a link to the stream and a password. You go to the link, you enter the password and that’s it. Book your ticket     Copyright © 2020 LawrenceBatleyTheatre, All rights reserved.
