The Red Shed is the third part in a trilogy of multi award winning shows Bravo Figaro and Cuckooed. Mark returns to where he first performed, a red wooden shed in Wakefield, the labour club, to celebrate its 50th birthday. Part theatre, stand up, journalism, activism, it’s the story of the battle for hope and the survival of a community.
