(This Is Not) A Happy Room
play
Don’t miss Rosie Day’s signature ‘laugh-a-minute’ humour (WhatsOnStage), in her new, searingly sharp dark comedy (THIS IS NOT) A HAPPY ROOM as it premieres at London’s King’s Head Theatre in March 2025.
Hailed as Saltburn meets Schitt’s Creek, this is Day’s second play after Instructions for a Teenage Armageddon which premiered at Southwark Playhouse before transferring to The Garrick.
You can’t choose your family, but if you could, you wouldn’t choose this one.

Meet the Hendersons, a happily dysfunctional family, reuniting for their dad’s third (or fourth?) wedding. But nobody expects the death of his bachelorhood to become an actual funeral… It would be a waste of the hotel function room not to repurpose it, right?
Tickets are available for performances from Wednesday 26th March – Sunday 27th April 2025
