The shows include Bull, from writer Mike Bartlett (of Doctor Foster fame), which will play at the SJT on February 1.
The play, originally performed at Sheffield’s Crucible Studio Theatre, explores the fine line between “office politics and playground bullying.”

Egg and Spoon, which takes to the stage on February 19 and February 20, is for young children and returns after a successful visit in 2023.
