Britain's What's On Event Guide
Hits & Pieces #7 (Britney Spears)
With a taste of a poison paradise
I'm addicted to you
Don't you know that you're toxic
And I love what you do
Don't you know that you're toxic
A night of four new original short plays inspired by Britney Spears' 2003 Grammy Award winner Toxic. After the plays, stay for a noughties playlist in the bar! Get ready for an evening of noughties nostalgia...
Matchstick Theatre Company (MTC) seeks to support new writing and champion original theatre. In January 2023 they launched Hits & Pieces - a new night of original shorts inspired by a different popular song each time.
Four writers present four new pieces of original short theatre all based on the same song. Give four bakers the same ingredients and each cake is different - the same with theatre!
MTC are a democratic bunch, each song is chosen by their audiences. At the end of each night they ask for song suggestions for forthcoming nights then four songs chosen by the Company are put to a public vote on Twitter and Insta.
They've had Sisqo's 'Thong Song', Don McLean's 'American Pie', Meatloaf's 'I would Do Anything for Love', Cher's 'Believe', the Spice Girls' 'Wannabe' and David Bowie's 'Heroes' so far!
