Unwanted Objects

Old teddy bears, abandoned chess sets and ships-in-bottles... Every item in this mysterious and magical secondhand shop has its own history to share and tale to tell. And you’re invited to listen to them.

Come and enjoy Unwanted Objects, a new story and song show from acclaimed duo David Head and Matt Glover.

Combining bittersweet short stories with folk-inspired musical melancholia, it is storytelling theatre full of wit, whimsy and warmth. An exploration of sentimentality, our possessions and the meaning we attach to them.

Performed at Buxton Fringe and Ventnor Fringe in Summer 2023.

Performing one-night-only with Chris Riddell live-illustrating the show

January 20th at the Rosemary Branch Theatre.
