The Shitheads tickets
About The Shitheads
'We’re all trapped in a cave, Clare. Each of us, all on our own. Staring out of our own little skull-shaped caves.'
Tens of thousands of years ago, Britain’s earliest inhabitants learn that love and violence feed the same fire.
When strangers arrive at a secluded cave, domestic harmony shatters – and survival turns savage.
Jack Nicholls’ debut play drags us back to the beginnings of who we are, in a world premiere co-directed by Royal Court Resident Director Aneesha Srinivasan and Artistic Director David Byrne.
Supported by Cockayne Grants for the Arts, a donor advised fund held at Prism the Gift Fund.
