Tagora productions
The end of “The Argument”
Last night the curtain went down for the final time on Tagora’s production of The Argument. A packed house saw our six actors give another sparky performance. Photos of the play (and many others!) are now available on the archive page.

Tagora will be staging N.F. Simpson’s absurdist comedy One way pendulum in June 2025. Casting readings will be held on 26 November and 3 December.
A kind of truth

In the play, members of an amateur …
Tagora on tour ’24
All right, so it’s not exactly a long tour: only one stop if truth be told. But it is in Antwerp, a great place to visit; it’s for FEATS; and, for the first time, Tagora is proposing both an entry in the main festival and a contribution to the FEATS fringe. The Festival of European …
Whose Right? – Photos now available
See the Archive page for photos of both D’r Handler and Molly Sweeney.
