Wild slapstick, the meaning of life, falling in love – suddenly the pie shop is a place where anything can happen.

Mr Red Light is a man who attracts bad luck. So naturally, when he tries to rob a bank he fails miserably – and ends up in a pie shop dealing with three very uncooperative hostages and the world’s worst police negotiator.

As time ticks by, Mr Red Light and his captives play a game of getting to know you. With nowhere to run and nothing to lose, they form an unlikely bond. And mysteriously, Mr Red Light seems to know more about his hostages’ lives than is possible.

Created by the award winning Nightsong team (Te Pō, Spirit House, 360) “who make the impossible work” (Stuff), Mr Red Light is one of the funniest and most outrageously original NZ plays to hit the stage in years. Mr Red Light is a fool or a prophet. But either way, he’ll will remind you how wonderful life can be.

 

Mr Red Light was commissioned by New Zealand Festival and developed with the support of Auckland Live.
