This term, Ruckus in the Garden bursts onto the Corpus Playroom stage as the Main Show for Week 6, brought to life by a vibrant cast and creative team of freshers. Expect a high-energy, sharply funny production that blends teenage chaos with a touch of Shakespearean mischief.

Written by David Farr, Ruckus in the Garden is a fast-paced exploration of teenage life, following two rival schools—Riverdale Comprehensive and St. Nectan's Grant Maintained—on a disastrous school trip to the idyllic garden of Cecil Fortescue. As tensions rise and old grudges flare, magical forces intervene, drawing inspiration from A Midsummer Night’s Dream to spark unexpected romance, comic confusion, and total mayhem.
