SCREWED

An exciting new comedy about a group of university friends who reunite for their annual catch-up. This year, they’ve decided to make one simple rule: all phones go in the middle of the table, and every call gets answered... on speaker. Creating a night full of unexpected confessions, buried secrets and lots of confusion.

A riotous send-off for the beloved double act, Ham and Stew. In a night packed with laughter, chaos, and heart, the duo faced their greatest challenge yet: eviction. As they scrambled to save their home, with more confusion than competence, they delivered one last whirlwind of sketches, surprises, and slapstick. A fitting farewell to a pair of mustachioed misfits.

THE WATSONS
