SUMMARY:Spider's Web
DESCRIPTION:The final performances for H72 Productions’ treatment of the Agatha Christie play – a country-house thriller-comedy with clues aplenty and a good helping of plot contrivances (including a most convenient hidden door in the study that of course leads to a secret passage) and a disappearing corpse. There are shows at 2.30pm and 7.30pm.

SUMMARY:Spider's Web
DESCRIPTION:A second night of performances for Agatha Christie’s play. It is a country-house thriller-comedy with clues aplenty and a good helping of plot contrivances – including a most convenient hidden door in the study that of course leads to a secret passage – and a disappearing corpse. Sarah Potter directs for the Junction’s resident company H72 Productions. Should be good fun. \nThe final performances are tomorrow (20 September) at 2.30pm and 7.30pm.

SUMMARY:Spider's Web
DESCRIPTION:Agatha Christie’s second most successful play (The Mousetrap is probably uncatchable) is a country-house thriller-comedy with clues aplenty and a good helping of plot contrivances – including a most convenient hidden door in the study that of course leads to a secret passage – and a disappearing corpse. Sarah Potter directs for the Junction’s resident company H72 Productions. Should be good fun. \nThere are further performances tomorrow (19 September) and Sunday (20 September).

SUMMARY:Karak After Dark Vol 3
DESCRIPTION:It looks like this night of improvisational comedy has been so successful that progenitors Tall Tales Productions and The Junction will be running it regularly. As before\, it’s a show created on the fly from audience suggestions; it’s inspired by the TV show Whose Line is it Anyway – “but we had to give it our own twist”. The team for this show looks a particularly good mix of acting and comedy talent: Asad Raza Khan\, Tarek El Saad \, Paul Jones\, Osama Farooqui\, Court Ash Dale\, Nour Al Kaddour\, and Salman Qureshi.

SUMMARY:Karak After Dark Vol 2
DESCRIPTION:The first iteration of this improv comedy night at the Junction was sold out and well liked\, so Tall Tales Productions and The Junction are coming back with a second. As before\, it’s a show created on the fly from audience suggestions; it’s inspired by the TV show Whose Line is it Anyway – “but we had to give it our own twist … with newer games\, more locally relevant themes\, and a cultural mixture promising to entertain you ‘pro-max!'” It’s in English\, but we’re promised locally-based talent from eight different nationalities (though as far we could make out\, the team for this show is Asad Raza Khan\, Basel Yafi\, Maria D’Cost Tarek El Saad and Salman Qureshi … all of whom are good).

SUMMARY:Karak After Dark
DESCRIPTION:Tall Tales Production and The Junction is bringing us what it calls “a new concept of Improvisational Comedy Nights” – we’re not sure where the newness resides\, given that the setup is described as “a few hyperactive comedians trying to survive 90 minutes without a script\, a safety net\, or a delivery app … The entire show is created with suggestions from the audience on the spot” – which sounds like classic improv to us. Still\, it’s an excellent group of Dubai standups Asad Raza Khan\, Salman Qureshi\, Nour Kaddour\, Paul Jones and Court Ash-Dale. \n

SUMMARY:Jukebox Junction
DESCRIPTION:The Junction does comedy for two consecutive (but not repeated) nights on 4 and 5 April: “Jukebox Junction is where stand-up and improv collide for a night that’s fast\, unpredictable\, and seriously fun … Sharp written comedy meets completely unscripted chaos\, with performers bouncing between polished sets and off-the-cuff scenes that come to life in the moment. No two shows are ever the same and that’s exactly the point … This isn’t just a show you watch\, it’s one you feel. Fast-paced\, unpredictable\, and packed with performers ready to take big swings and bring the room with them …” That sets the bar pretty high. It’s free\, but book a seat in advance.

SUMMARY:The Studio 
DESCRIPTION:An interesting experiment in open-access open-ended performance by The Junction. It’s a kind of open mic for any kind of performance: you can pitch for a slot for whatever it is you want to do (anything goes\, apparently) – book here – but spontaneous performances are also welcome on the day (“we will have open floor time built in\, and try and get as many performances in as we can”). And you can also attend as an opinionated audience member; performance is not mandatory … \nRegistration is required\, either way. Presentation slots are limited and will be on a first-come first-served basis “to ensure a variety of disciplines and mediums are showcased — so the more specific you are about what you’re bringing\, the better”.
