2024 PRODUCTION 

'Blue Blood or How to Kill Your Way to the Top’ is the extraordinary story of outcast Gabriel Jones and his scandalous adventures as he murders his way through the illustrious Gascoyne family on his way to claiming a dukedom and all it represents. An enthralling play based on the classic novel that inspired the beloved Ealing comedy Kind Hearts and Coronets.


★★★★★ ‘Richly intoxicating and darkly amusing. Without a doubt one of the strongest shows I’ve seen in a long while.’ 

Emily Schofield, Lost in Theatreland.


After sell-out runs along the south coast in 2023, our highly acclaimed 'Blue Blood' returns in 2024 as part of a wider tour ahead of opening in London in the autumn.

 

BLUE DEVIL'S PAST PRODUCTIONS

Here are extracts from our scrapbook of past performances. We have had the privilege to work with some incredible actors over the years and played in some beautiful spaces. 

Deadly serious comedy.

 

A young man says he's just looking for a place to stay, but he's got sex, violence and revenge on his mind. When Mike and Joyce open their door to Wilson, they're letting in so much more than a handsome stranger.

 

Joe Orton's Ruffian on the Stair was our first production back in 2017 at Brighton's Lantern Theatre. With a great cast and crew, we were nominated as Best Newcomers at the Brighton Fringe Award and the reviews were great. 

 

With Kiki Kendrick as Joyce, Elliott Rogers as Wilson and Pádraig Lynch as Mike.

You are cordially invited to a most unusual, mechanically achieved execution.

 

2018 saw us back with Ross Dinwiddy's Franz Kafka - Apparatus, a reworking of Kafka's short story, In the Penal Colony. We received fantastic reviews for our previews at Brighton's Rialto Theatre plus a nomination for Best New Play as the Brighton Fringe Awards where it won the Best Design for Print Award. Apparatus transferred to London's White Bear Theatre in January 2019.

Berlin, 1931. The decadence is divine.
