Winner of all four major Best Play Awards when it first opened at the National Theatre in 1990, Racing Demon has since been a hit all over the world. Last seen at the Theatre Royal in 1991, David Hare’s gripping drama now returns to Bath for the first time in twenty-five years.

Four clergymen seek to make sense of their mission in inner-city London whilst facing their own personal crises. David Haig plays Lionel Espy, a cleric whose faith is wavering as his parishioners dwindle; there’s tabloid-hounded gay vicar Harry Henderson; ‘Streaky’ Bacon, a genial reverend with a taste for tequila; and a charismatic young curate, Tony Ferris whose arrival is set to fan the flames, whilst his relationship with his lover turns to ash. The day of judgement is at hand for all.

Racing Demon appears at the Theatre Royal Bath from Wednesday 21st June to Saturday 8th July. Tickets are available from the Theatre Royal Bath Box Office on 01225 448844 and online at www.theatreroyal.org.uk
