Dastardly Deal Street Theatre

The History Project has teamed up with ReShake Theatre to produce a lively and comical historic street theatre show that makes Deal's Middle Street come alive and take the viewer back a few hundred years. Please, do not confuse this show with a costumed walking tour, this is far from it! 

Dastardly Deal is co-written and produced by The History Project and Reshake Theatre but entirely performed by Reshake

The show follows a number of local characters ranging from Billy Bates, a local dangerous smuggler with a taste for cheap women, Betty, a lady of the night who has the smugglers wrapped around her little finger, historic writer and poet Elizabeth Carter, and more, taking guests on a journey through the winding Middle Street area once known for its rich smuggling activities.

The show runs on selected dates throughout the year and lasts approximately 1 hour.

Please allow sufficient time to park locally and get to the meeting point is good time. Show on the Promenade on the Northside (Sandown Castle side) of The Royal Hotel.
