Overview

The Other School: a psychological new musical from the writer of Departure Lounge.

Polly and Kester Parish are bored of first days. It’s their fifth new school in five years, thanks to Mum’s job. This school is a bit different, though… every student seems to have suffered a random freaky accident. Some of them enjoy snapping their limbs and slamming their fingers in doors. That headmistress is definitely not all there, not to mention the creepy caretaker. Welcome to The Other School – once you’re in the system, it’ll never let you leave!

Originally commissioned by National Youth Music Theatre, The Other School enjoyed a sell-out run at the St James Theatre in 2013.
