One hospital. Four stories. Four twisted stories.

Unlike hospital shows on TV, Discharge isn't full of snappy quick-witted doctors flirting with gorgeous nurses. It doesn't have frantic dashes to E.R. but it does have self-prescribing doctors, murderous nurses, amorous orderlies and two very bored garderners. It is also the only play in town to use stop motion animation coupled with live voice-overs.

Written by Matt Penny (The Unkindness of Strangers, Slight Leakage and The Magic Matt Show) this play is an extension of the very popular Slight Leakage. It has taken four years to get it to this stage and, with a stellar cast, Discharge looks set to have audiences laughing, and crying, in the aisles.

"I suffocated him in the end. Cling film's the best thing for it. So easy to dispose of." (Agency Nurse, Ward Four)
