Gwyneth Goes Skiing at Hope Mill Theatre, Manchester

Gwyneth Goes Skiing

After sell-out London runs, critical acclaim, a U.S. transfer and a run at Edinburgh Fringe, join harbingers of queer chaos Awkward Productions (Diana: The Untold and Untrue Story), as they transform the theatre into Deer Valley Ski Resort.

She’s the Goop-founding, Door-Sliding, Shakespeare-In-Loving, consciously-uncoupling Hollywood superstar.

He’s a retired Optometrist from Utah.

In 2016, they went skiing.

On the slopes of Deer Valley, their worlds collided, and so did they – literally. Ouch.

Seven years later in 2023, they went to court. Double ouch.

This is their story. Kind of. Not really.

A story of love, betrayal, and skiing – where you are the jury.

Prepare to be gooped.

BYOJE (bring your own jade eggs).
