Description

"Who just sits and waits?" Nate and Quinn take residence in an abandoned warehouse to await details of their next job, just a phone and each other for company, wiling away the time with darkly comedic arguments about rimming, ballcocks, and murder – all whilst hiding some shady secrets about their mysterious employer. Only Hitmen and Scammers Make Phone Calls is a fast-paced comedy of shocking revelations about the finite nature of human existence, finding love in unexpected places, and PPI.

Fast paced dialogue and great cast made this show wonderful. The witicisms guide the audience through a blossoming relationship, a hidden traitor, and sweet, sweet revenge.
Delighted me especially to see the triumph of a queer relationship over misogyny and transphobia. Please enjoy these hit-people with hearts of gold.

Loved this show. It's a funny and interesting play that keeps you engaged throughout. The acting, writing and direction is great. Definitely recommend.

An intriguing, drip-fed narrative, reminiscent of inside number 9, with some good laughs throughout. Cast were great and staging really effective. Wish they had a bigger audience, so give this show a look!
