Tickets are OUT NOW for ARTE’s 2024 play, The Watsons! Get your tickets HERE: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1PcZPcqeoc2K8YWZHanWgzB-fWbtnbwrbhk2iM8EUnV4/edit?usp=sharing before they’re gone 👀

The Watsons by Laura Wade is a sparklingly witty play based on an unfinished Jane Austen novel of the same name. What on earth are characters meant to do when their first author abandons them?

The show will be performed on the 14th, 15th, and 16th March in the Arthur Thompson Hall at the top of the medical school. Doors will open at 7PM for a 7:30PM start. Each night a different MedSoc fundraising group will be running a bake sale, so bring plenty of cash to avoid missing out!

Whether you love or loathe Jane Austen, you’re sure to enjoy this show - incredibly funny, charming, a little bit raunchy, and more than a bit meta, it’s definitely not one you want to miss! What’s more, it’s for a fantastic cause - all profits from ticket sales will be donated to the International Rescue Committee, a global humanitarian aid charity who are doing vital work to alleviate suffering in Gaza 🇵🇸❤️

Calling all theatre enthusiasts!!!

Did you know, as well as the annual musical, ARTE also put on a play!?!?

This year we’ll be performing The Watsons, written by the fantastic Laura Wade. Her witty writing style shines through this sparkling play adaptation of a novel that the famous Jane Austen started, but never finished. Whatever are characters supposed to do when their author abandons them?!

Sign up here for an audition slot: https://forms.gle/ZMNW8abGRs2yXMm19
