Building a Nation Is Like Going on Holiday: It Never Turns Out How You Expect

Created by Jack Brownridge-Kelly and Danny Frost

A bold, fast-paced new comedy set in a freshly independent country with a big idea and absolutely no plan for what comes next.

A nation decides to solve the problem of mass tourism once and for all by nationalising it. What starts as an idealistic attempt to protect culture, community, and coastline quickly snowballs into a spectacular experiment, complete with absurd rules, escalating chaos, and consequences nobody saw coming.

The No. 1 Holiday Destination promises a smart, silly, and uncomfortably familiar night at the theatre.

Doors at 19:00. Show starts at 19:30. Running time: 2 hours incl. a 15-minute interval.
