Live on Air… and Under Siege: Pontypool at The Loft Theatre, Leamington
Local weatherman Ken Loney reports on something strange going on in the town. People are talking in strange ways. Repeating phrases. Tearing each other apart.
The team struggles to verify the story, as they find themselves at the centre of a very unusual outbreak. What’s turning the locals into a rampaging mob, and is the broadcast helping, or harming?
Director Hannah Brown says : “Pontypool is a play about language, how it shapes who we are, and who we can trust when everything around us collapses.”
The Loft’s take on this claustrophobic cult horror runs from Tuesday 21st - Saturday 25th April 2026
Please note: Age guidance 16+. Content Warning: Violence, moderate gore, mature themes. No readmission after play commences. The Studio performance space is located upstairs and unfortunately does not have lift access.
