One dead father
One messed up family
One girl who just wants to help
One school bully who always gets his own way
One man of the church offering comfort
And one hand puppet who is completely out of control – He’s shocking, dangerous and taking no prisoners.
All hell is breaking out at the Vaudeville Theatre as this hilarious and provocative new comedy lands direct from Broadway, where the New York
Times hailed it “Wickedly Funny” and the New Yorker called it “Sesame Street meets The Exorcist”
Book now for the most exciting new play to come out of America this year starring Janie Dee, Neil Pearson, Harry Melling, Jemima Rooper and Kevin Mains.
And remember; "A left hand can certainly be a dangerous thing!"

As unexpected as it sounds, the show about a satanic sock puppet on the arm of an unstable child leaves you laughing one second and unsettled the next. From the wild mind of writer Robert Askins, the Broadway transfer Hand To God at the Vaudeville Theatre is a rollercoaster from start to finish, one which you’re sure to enjoy.

Son Of A Biscuit! Hand To God Is Fun, Freaky And Definitely Not For The Faint-Hearted
Well, I can’t say I wasn’t warned.
Hand to God, described by The New Yorker as ‘Sesame Street meets The Exorcist’, is the story of Jason, who’s been dragged along to his mum’s puppet-making class at the local church, as she tries to keep busy following the death of his father. Unfortunately while his mother’s getting propositioned by both teenager Timothy and the church pastor, Jason’s puppet, Tyrone, is starting to take on a life of his own, and develops a bad habit of saying inappropriate things, exploding light bulbs and biting people’s earlobes off.
