After accidentally raising one of the Seven Princes of Hell, snotty young toff, Sir Lord Leslie Creep, is unable to rid himself of the fiend. In a bid to make the best of the situation, Creep makes a deal; in exchange for his wildest hopes and dreams, he’ll sell a soul - but it won’t be his own.
After being elevated to the heights he was born to enjoy, Creep’s success should be secured. But life is difficult at the top, especially when you are surrounded by a plethora of characters, all vying for the audience’s attention, a plot that is unhelpfully surreal and the devil on your shoulder demanding payment!
Bursting from the pen of Nicholas Agnew, with additional material from the cast and presented to you in Glorious Technicolour (although due to budget restraints, some scenes may still be in black and white!), From the Devil They Came follows the traditions of the best of British comedy. Drawing inspiration from performers such as the Goons, Monty Python and the Alternative Comedy movement this play is a visual treat, transporting you through improbable and hilarious situations as a multitude of characters deliver a story that’s guaranteed to make your belly burst with mirth.
