One dead father
One messed up family
One girl who just wants to help
One school bully who always gets his own way
One man of the church offering comfort
And one hand puppet who is completely out of control – He’s shocking, dangerous and taking no prisoners.

All hell is breaking out at the Vaudeville Theatre as this hilarious and provocative new comedy lands direct from Broadway, where the New York
Times hailed it “Wickedly Funny” and the New Yorker called it “Sesame Street meets The Exorcist”

Book now for the most exciting new play to come out of America this year starring Janie Dee, Neil Pearson, Harry Melling, Jemima Rooper and Kevin Mains.

And remember; "A left hand can certainly be a dangerous thing!"

Brilliant show, laughs from start to finish.

Jacky Devitt

I thought it was a brilliant show. Great night out.

Carolyn Kaye

Amusing, well acted and very enjoyable

Stephen Kirk

I'm sad to say I left at the interval. Somehow this play didn't grab me. I like eccentricity and thought provoking works but somehow I wasn't sure what this play wanted to be. Was it satire, comedy, a tirade about belief systems? The start was very slow and it did get my interest towards the interval but I decided to have a walk in the rare sunshine outside than return. If you want a good laugh go and see Painkiller at the Garrick!

Anatol Orient

Fantastic show. Tragic that it had to close early.

Howard Crane

Funny, irreverent, over the top

Jan Bell

Funny but with underlying seriousness. Great performances all round, especially Janie Dee and Harry Melling. Recommended.

Philippa Tonkin

It was a very enjoyable show - certainly adult entertainment. Harry Melling was brilliant.

Joanne Kirby

Absolutely hilarious, I would recommend this show as a massive dose of pick me up if you think your life is a mess..............

David Evans

Great acting and if you are broad minded about a subject that challenges any religious beliefs you hold; its a very entertaining production.

William Atkinson

Great show for lovers of Avenue Q, possession, puppets, and irreverent comedy. Hilarious, intelligent show that deserves more attention than it's getting.

Tracey Sheehan

Fantastic cast and hilarious

Son Of A Biscuit! Hand To God Is Fun, Freaky And Definitely Not For The Faint-Hearted

Well, I can’t say I wasn’t warned.

Hand to God, described by The New Yorker as ‘Sesame Street meets The Exorcist’, is the story of Jason, who’s been dragged along to his mum’s puppet-making class at the local church, as she tries to keep busy following the death of his father. Unfortunately while his mother’s getting propositioned by both teenager Timothy and the church pastor, Jason’s puppet, Tyrone, is starting to take on a life of his own, and develops a bad habit of saying inappropriate things, exploding light bulbs and biting people’s earlobes off.
