My Night With Reg 2020

Green Carnation Company present
MY NIGHT WITH REG
By Kevin Elyot

January 23 – March 12, 2020

In 2020 Green Carnation Theatre delivered their first successful Arts Council funded mid-scale tour with Kevin Elyot’s wonderfully human dark comedy ‘My Night with Reg’.

Funny, sad and sweet, Kevin Elyot’s award-winning dark comedy play about the relationships of a group of gay men and their connections to the unseen yet magnetic Reg is a moving exploration of friendship, happiness and love, and their fragility in the shadow of the 1980’s AIDS crisis.

We toured to five venues (The Lowry, Hull Truck Theatre, Lawrence Batley Theatre, Gala Theatre Durham, and Warwick Arts Centre) reaching over 2,000 audiences. Unfortunately the final two performances were cancelled due to the Covid 19 pandemic. If you require a refund please contact Warwick Arts Centre directly by emailing ticketing@warwick.ac.uk

We received incredible feedback from audiences and press alike and were thrilled to reach new audiences across the country with this important and relevant play.
