Playwright David Gale, erstwhile writer for Lumiere & Son, after some decades in the scripting saddle, turns to a new performance challenge. Having toyed with the short form in his must-have text and image entertainment David Gale's Peachy Coochy Nites, he will now test the possibilities of brevity to the limit. Dash Dash Dash is a grand theatrical experiment whose components are only twenty-five minutes long, yet whose impact will be feature length.

For the last six months David Gale has written and directed a play every month, working with a team of hot young theatre designers from Wimbledon College of Art. Now each finely tuned unit, together with its characteristic mirth, melancholy and mayhem, will be combined into the substantial evening out that is the Omnibus.

'It is a rare pleasure to find a performance that is both technically superb and has the audience crying with laughter... The actors produce one of the finest displays of ensemble acting I have ever seen.' Total Theatre
