​

GROUP! fuses a sh*t hot cast, 11-piece band, bright lights, big dance numbers and Belfast’s classic dark humour - bringing together the city’s top talent to make you laugh so hard you wet yourself.

​

A group therapy session spirals into hilarious havoc when a cocktail of deeply dysfunctional and unpredictable personalities collide.

Frank, Jean, Barbara, Chris, and Jackie all have a lot of stuff going on. They’ve spent 15 absurd weeks melting the head off their woefully inept facilitator Emmet - and the cracks are starting to show…

​

When Amy - a new member with a twisted secret - joins the group, their tenuous bond is pushed to breaking point. Confessions, confrontation, and chaos combine in an outrageous comedy that’s so funny it hurts.
