Treason the Musical

Not a whimsical all-singing tribute to treason in all its forms, but rather a new musical about the Gunpowder Plot, which touches down at Ally Pally a shade after Bonfire Night as part of a UK tour. Created by Ricky Allen, ‘Treason’ began life as an EP of songs, then received concert stagings in 2021 and 2022. This tour, however, is its first full staging. In terms of the plot… well, you presumably already know: angry Catholics attempt to blow up the Houses of Parliament, fail spectacularly, sing about it.
