Following critically acclaimed UK tours, two Edinburgh Festival Fringe seasons and two North American seasons, the acclaimed rhyming retelling of classic (festive?) film Die Hard is at MAST Mayflower Studios on Wednesday 22 January 2025.
When gunmen seize an LA skyscraper, off-duty policeman John McClane is the hostages’ only hope.
This uplifting action romp (and unauthorised parody) celebrates the iconic 80s festive favourite while also telling the personal story of a life-long Die Hard fan. Essential viewing for Hans Gruber connoisseurs and newcomers alike.
Content warning: divorce, foot trauma, German terrorists.
James Seabright is delighted to present Richard Marsh’s joyfully funny show, which is not to be missed.
Darrel Bailey first performed Yippee Ki Yay at the King’s Head Theatre, London, and has since returned for the show’s two north American seasons and for the full Edinburgh Fringe 2023 run. He is a West Midlands born actor who trained at Mountview Academy of Theatre Arts and recently performed in Small Island (National). Other credits include Oedipus (Almeida), Alice in Wonderland (Brockwell Park), Much Ado About Nothing (St Paul’s, Covent Garden), and an immersive production of One Hundred Trillion (Dot Collective).
