'Oh, and whatever you do. Do NOT let Celia add you to the WhatsApp group.'

Three parties, one weekend: it's Party Season. Xander is back in town, and this weekend he's on parenting duty. The kids are in the ball pit; the entertainer is blowing bubbles; the adults gobble Perelló olives and pretend to like each other.

As ancient grudges rear their heads, the tension rises like a helium balloon. Xander, caught between who he was and who he's supposed to be, must decide whether he's going to grow up or just pass the parcel.

Party Season is a razor-sharp comedy about privilege, party rings and the pressures of being a parent. A co-production between The Wardrobe Ensemble, Royal & Derngate, Northampton, and Lowry, it premiered on a UK tour in 2026.

The Wardrobe Ensemble are a critically acclaimed Bristol-based group of theatre artists. Their other work includes The Last of the Pelican Daughters, 1972: The Future of Sex and Education, Education, Education.
