What The Butler Saw

'What The Butler Saw' marks the return of our award-winning old boys’ theatre group, the CGTC, which aims to give avid alumni, as well as the broader community, opportunities to free their theatrical passions both on and off-stage!

'What The Butler Saw' is a two-act comedy by British playwright, Joe Orton, a controversial dramatist, prankster and connoisseur of chaos. Completed only a few months before his death, the play revolves around the bizarre events that transpire in a private psychiatric clinic. Orton’s comedy spirals into mayhem as penchants and peccadillos force our characters into compromising, disturbing & darkly hilarious situations.

Our version of Orton’s play is a COVID-safe live show.
