Theatre Mikron to Perform Flushed at Bingley Arts Centre

New play explores public plumbing and environmental concerns

Theatre Mikron will present their production Flushed at Bingley Arts Centre on 9 April 2027, from 7pm to 9pm. The play combines original songs and social commentary to examine the politics surrounding public plumbing and sewage management.

Plot and themes

Flushed follows three characters—Kate, Richard, and Amy—who come from diverse backgrounds and political views. Despite their differences, they share a common concern about raw sewage damaging natural beauty spots. The story charts their efforts to protect a river they care about, highlighting historical and contemporary issues related to sewage pollution.

The play references significant moments such as the Great Stink of 1858 and modern-day protests by groups like ‘Cawkshire Water’ in 2027. It aims to shed light on the challenges within the sewage industry, where financial interests and environmental impact are often at odds.
