Gwyneth Goes Skiing @ Pleasance Theatre

Shes the Goop-founding, Door-Sliding, Shakespeare-In-Loving, consciously-uncoupling Hollywood superstar. Hes a retired Optometrist from Utah. In 2016, they went skiing. On the slopes of Deer Valley, their worlds collided, and so did they - literally. Ouch. Seven years later in 2023, they went to court. Double ouch. This is their story. Kind of. Not really. But also, its at Christmas. Join harbingers of queer chaos Awkward Productions (Diana: The Untold & Untrue Story and How to Live a Jellicle Life) as they transform Londons Pleasance Theatre into Deer Valley Ski Resort. A brand new show for Christmas 2023. Starring Linus Karp as Gwyneth Paltrow, Joseph Martin as Terry Sanderson, and featuring original music by Leland (RuPauls Drag Race, Chers Christmas, Troye Sivans Something To Give Each Other). A story of love, betrayal, skiing, and (somehow) Christmas - where you are the jury! Prepare to be gooped. BYOJE (bring your own jade eggs).
