A razor-sharp psychological thriller hits the Sheffield stage
The iconic 90s thriller gets a chilling modern makeover as Single White Female makes its world premiere stage adaptation at the Lyceum Theatre.

Presented by JAS Theatricals, ATG Productions and Gavin Kalin Productions, and adapted for the stage by Rebecca Reid, this bold new production updates the story for the age of social media, online obsession, and curated identities — with stiletto-sharp suspense throughout.
Sharing a flat can be murder…
Allie is a recently divorced mum, juggling single parenthood with the launch of her tech start-up. When she advertises for a lodger to help make ends meet, the charming and capable Hedy appears to be the perfect solution.

But as their lives intertwine, boundaries blur. Trust fractures. And what begins as a lifeline slowly twists into something far more dangerous.

Friendship becomes fixation.

Support turns to control.

And behind every closed door, something darker is waiting.
Star casting and creative pedigree
The production stars Kym Marsh (Coronation Street, Waterloo Road, Abigail’s Party) alongside Lisa Faulkner (Holby City, Murder in Suburbia, John and Lisa’s Weekend Kitchen).

From the producers of the hit stage adaptation of The Girl on the Train, this gripping thriller combines dark humour, psychological tension, and a relentless sense of unease that builds to a shocking conclusion.

A fearless, funny and furious new show smashing menopause taboos
Dry Bits is a bold new one-woman show from Sheffield-based writer and performer Imogen Ashby, developed with support from Sheffield Theatres and funded by the Arts Council England.

Subtitled “Not just the change but the remix”, this riotous production takes menopause out of the shadows and throws it centre stage — with candour, chaos, and a killer 1980s soundtrack.
What to expect
For centuries, the menopause has been whispered about, joked about, or ignored entirely. Dry Bits does the opposite.

Expect:
Office meltdowns and midnight sweats
Teenage ghosts and Hulk-level fury
Unexpected dance moves
Brutal honesty mixed with big laughs
With humour, rage and heart in equal measure, Imogen becomes your fearless guide through a life being rewritten from the inside out — messy, maddening, and surprisingly liberating.
Why this show matters
More than a comedy about hot flushes, Dry Bits is:
A rallying cry
A revelation
And a brilliant night out
It invites audiences to laugh, rage, reflect — and feel seen.

Perfect for anyone who has ever Googled:
“What is happening to me?”
