Washed Up – FREE to view
Washed Up, Rough Glory Films’ award winning short film about Desperate Men is FREE to watch during the coronavirus crisis! This bleakly comic study takes an unflinching look at the combustible tension that drives Desperate Men to keep making vital street theatre when some days they are barely on speaking terms. Seeing how we have lasted 25 years without killing one another may inspire people to keep going through quarantine. Click here to watch for free.
Generations
“Thought provoking, funny and poignant look at what happens next when performers decide to move on after 4 decades of work”
42 years in the making, our new outdoor show represents Desperate Men handing over to the next generation. However, we are not going out quietly! We invite the audience to bear witness to a ceremony of transformation, as we pass the baton and image how the generations might co-exist in future. Click here for more info.
Slapstick & Slaughter

Would you like to test the limits of our imagination?
