In Decadence a terrifying light is brutally shone on the excesses of the 80s and all that decade offered and took away. Berkoff's searing indictment of the moneyed classes is brought gloriously and grotesquely back to the modern stage by 'Misplaced'.

How much has really changed? Are we a classless society? Can we Build Better? Have we Levelled Up? Welcome to the absurd and grotesque world of Steven Berkoff. Penguin suits and Mouton Rothschild Champagne collide with fake furs and powdered glass in gin.

Absurd, horrifying and obscene in equal measures, watch Berkoff's characters immerse themselves in ridiculous pursuits of pleasure and revenge while morality and compassion are nowhere to be seen.

Decadence contains themes of Racism, Homophobia, Misogyny, Abuse and Hunting. Sexualised dialogue and offensive language throughout.

Misplaced Theatre was formed in 2021 by four artists "missing in action" - three Brits and a New York based Mexican - 'Decadence' marks a return to the stage for these misplaced actors.

All tickets include a £1 admin charge

The Alma Theatre has been serving the community for 25 years and has never been the recipient of ACE or other funding. Our theatre manager started maternity leave as the pandemic hit and as a result we missed all opportunities for additional arts council support. We have been offering reduced rates, preferential box office splits and extended promo support to aid the recovery from the past year and a half. Your help will enable us to continue bringing fantastic stories to your local theatre. 50% of your donation will go to the Alma Theatre, and 50% to our inhouse company, Schoolhouse Productions.
