Hit The Road

Thursday 13 Oct @ Hull Truck Theatre

Two parents and their sons – one a taciturn adult, the other an ebullient six-year-old – drive across the Iranian countryside. Over the course of the trip, they bond over memories of the past, grapple with fears of the unknown, and fuss over their sick dog. Tensions arise as the family get closer to the unspoken goal of their journey. The result is a humanist drama that offers an authentic, funny, and sincere look at a family preparing to part with one of their own.

The Mark of Zorro

Friday 14 Oct @ Hull Truck Theatre

Who is the mysterious Zorro? Nobody knows…

Appearing as if from nowhere, clad head-to-toe in black, sword flashing, he defends the weak and carves his trademark ‘Z’ into the cheek of every villain he conquers.

Douglas Fairbanks is the prototype rough-tough Hollywood action man, complete with a romantic streak and a roguish twinkle. Errol Flynn took the archetype into the sound era in the 1930s, and Harrison Ford and Michael Douglas reinvented it in the 1980s. But it’s Fairbanks who had the most fun with it – his zippy, irrepressible playfulness is impossible to resist.
