It’s the end of the world. The last night on earth. An asteroid is heading straight for us. Fancy going out with a bang?
It’s the final countdown. Landlady Kathy invites you to the last quiz night on earth with Quizmaster Rav. He’s the host with the most. But with time ticking, some unexpected guests turn up out of the blue. Bobby wants to settle old scores and Fran wants one last shot at love. Expect the unexpected to the bitter end.
Following their sell-out visit with Chip Shop Chips, Box of Tricks bring Alison Carr’s explosive pre-apocalyptic comedy The Last Quiz Night on Earth to Bury and Ramsbottom.
So grab a drink and join us for a night you won’t forget with plenty of drama. Let’s get quizzical, quizzical!

Reviews
“A well-executed piece of drama that is forged seamlessly around an actual quiz… holds up a mirror to human emotions and frailties… With an excellent blend of humour, pathos and quiz-mastery this is a good story, well told. It is a gem of a show.”
Quays Life
“Incredibly cohesive, with the story, quiz, and audience interaction blending together with deceptive ease… Alison Carr’s full-of-life script serves up some gentle home truths alongside the humour. With its energetic staging and engaging performances, the show’s two hours fly by… generating a defiantly feel-good force field.”
Circles and Stalls
“A fantastic night down the pub and at the theatre… a joy to experience.”
