Children of the Night is a play and a party. Part poem, part kitchen-sink, part dance-party.

Set on the closing night Doncaster’s infamous club Karisma. It follows the story of Lindsay Jenkins, a working class ex-miner’s daughter, as she navigates coming of age during an HIV outbreak in the grand finale of clubland: the late 90’s.

Children of the Night is a loud night out and quiet revolt, it celebrates post- Thatcherism, rebellious ravers and asks why so many Northern towns have found a new identity in club culture?

The show ran for a week of preview performances at Cast, Doncaster in March 2023 to sell-out audiences. A 2025 Edinburgh Fringe run and national tour are currently in development.
