The Harmony Test

By Richard Molloy

Directed by Jodi Rilot

Performances: Tuesday 12th May - Saturday 16th May 2026

Putney Arts Theatre - Studio

About the play:

Newlyweds Zoe and Kash are on a mission to have a baby. From sex schedules to dodgy under-the-counter remedies, increasingly desperate antics begin to take over their lives. With every aspect of their schedules, diets and sex lives revolving around conception, relationship cracks seem inevitable. If they do successfully conceive, what will this mean for Kash’s fledgling acting career? If they don’t, how will Zoe get over losing what she feels is her true purpose in life?

Meanwhile, empty-nesters Charlie and Naomi are facing a different matrimonial challenge, and it looks terminal. Charlie is bewildered that his wife does not share his excitement at finally having the house to themselves. Naomi can’t remember what attracted her to Charlie in the first place. Lacking any meaningful connection in her life, she heads to the gym, where she finds "connection" aplenty in the shape of Rocco, a personal trainer 20 years her junior.

Richard Molloy’s darkly funny drama explores the ups and downs, hilarity and awkwardness that accompany the heart-wrenching journey of trying to conceive. 

Content warnings: 

The play contains themes of IVF, abortion and divorce. 

Suitable for audiences above the age of 15.

Rosencrantz And Guildenstern are Dead

By Tom Stoppard, Directed by Robert Wallis & Will Hunter

Tuesday 16 - Saturday  20 June 19:45 with afternoon matinee at 15:00 on Saturday 20 June.

Putney Arts Theatre - Main Stage

About the play:

Two minor characters from Shakespeare’s Hamlet suddenly find themselves at the centre of a story they do not understand and cannot seem to influence.

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern pass the time flipping coins, trading riddles, and trying to figure out just what is going on with the Prince of Denmark. As they stumble in and out of Shakespeare’s tragedy, they encounter the mysterious Player King and his troupe of Tragedians, actors who embrace blood, death, and rhetoric as all part of the show – which is to say, life.

What begins as a comic rumination on chance and circumstance deepens into a haunting exploration of what it means to exist when your part is already written.

Tom Stoppard’s 1966 breakout is a dazzling blend of existential comedy, verbal acrobatics, and theatrical playfulness that reframes Shakespeare’s play from the wings.

About the play:

"Oh happy dagger, here is thy sheath!"

Two households. One city. No happy ending.

When Romeo Montague gatecrashes a Capulet party and meets Juliet, they fall in love and detonate a chain of events that drags friends, families, and futures into the open. Secret meetings turn into secret vows, the pressure builds with public pride and private grief, and the smallest spark of miscommunication leads to duel and disaster.

Shakespeare’s most famous story moves with the speed and wit of youth; breathless, impulsive, and impossibly alive. A tale of first love, bad timing, and sprinkled with hope that two people might manage to rewrite a world built to keep them apart.

Performed outdoors in different venues across South London over four weeks, and following the huge success of PTC's Much Ado About Nothing in 2025, this production is one not to be missed.
