A CRUDE, COMPELLING, COMING OF AGE COMEDY.

You're 15 years old, struggling through school and coming to terms with the early

stages of adolescence. Things are tricky when you're growing up. You get dealt yet

another devastating blow. But this time, it's worse. Your mum's passed away.

Now what?


Based on Ollie Maddigan’s real life story, “The Olive Boy" is a crude but compelling

comedy written and performed by Ollie Maddigan himself. Initially introduced at the

Hope Theatre in 2021, the show quickly gained attention during its three-night run as

part of the Camden Fringe and then in 2022 as part of its month-long sell out run at The

Edinburgh Fringe. Renowned for its gripping narrative and Ollie’s remarkable onstage

presence, "The Olive Boy" has received praise from both theatre-goers and critics.

Born originally as a library in 1862 then later a bank, this decadent and richly decorated…

    Brilliant, took me back to adolescent experiences both good and bad. The Venue worked very well to enhance the production. They are great storytellers with a wonderful use of language.

    We had never been to this little theatre before so we didn’t know what to expect. What a wonderful experience it turned out to be. The actors where fabulous with amazing voices. Well done to all concerned, we thoroughly enjoyed the show
