Jerusalem Explosive Play

On Thursday, 4 February 2027, the Stables Theatre in Hastings will host the play Jerusalem, written by Jez Butterworth and directed by Gareth Brighton, until Wednesday, 10 February 2027. • The play is a celebration of rebellion, freedom, folklore, and the changing face of modern Britain, set deep in the English countryside. • Johnny "Rooster" Byron, a self-proclaimed local legend, takes centre stage as a larger-than-life troublemaker and storyteller, refusing to back down in the face of authority. • With a run time of approximately 2 hours 30 minutes, including an interval, this production is suitable for ages 15+, but does contain triggers that audiences should be aware of.

The play's exploration of themes such as rebellion and freedom is likely to resonate with audiences, and its blend of humour, outrage, and provocation makes for a deeply moving experience. Tickets are with the button beside the article. With its explosive and award-winning reputation, Jerusalem is an event not to be overlooked, and its arrival in Hastings is a significant cultural highlight for the town.
