Neville’s Island at The Blackmore Theatre

When four middle-aged, middle-management men embark on a corporate team-building weekend in the Lake District, things quickly go hilariously awry. Stranded on a remote island after a canoeing mishap, Neville, the appointed leader, must navigate his way through the chaos as his mismatched colleagues.

What begins as an exercise in teamwork turns into a comedic battle of wits, egos, and survival as the group struggles to cope with the island’s challenges—and each other. With limited resources, rising tensions, and unexpected revelations, the four men grapple with their insecurities, failures, and the absurdity of their predicament.

This production of Neville’s Island is presented by Tambourine Productions, who previously delighted audiences at The Blackmore Theatre with their sell-out production of Blackadder Goes Forth and the critically acclaimed Bouncers. Packed with humor, heart, and surprising twists, Tim Firth’s play offers a delightfully entertaining look at what happens when civilization is left behind, and only the bonds of camaraderie—or lack thereof—remain.
