Monstrous Regiment

It began as a sudden strange fancy...Polly Perks had to become a boy in a hurry. Cutting off her hair and wearing trousers was easy. Learning to fart and belch in public and walk like an ape took more time...

Now she's enlisted in the army and searching for her brother. But there's a war on, and whatever everyone says, their side is coming off worse. Polly and her fellow recruits are suddenly in the thick of it, without any training, and the enemy is hunting them.

All they have on their side is the most artful sergeant in the army, a vampire with a lust for coffee, and a readiness to fight dirty. As they take the war to the heart of the enemy, they’ll have to use all the resources of the Monstrous Regiment. 

Monstrous Regiment was presented in the University of Sheffield Drama Studio Theatre, Shearwood Rd, Broomhall, Sheffield S10 2TD from 18th to the 21st of February 2026 at 7:30 pm, plus Saturday Matinee, 2:30pm (21st Feb)
