The Empire Strips Back

The Empire Strips Back at Hammer Theatre

Why see The Empire Strips Back?

The Fun Awakens

What began as a three-night run a long long time ago, The Empire Strips Back has evolved into a fully-fledged extravaganza that has taken the country by storm. Presented by our friends over at fever, this is the show you're looking for!

Described as cosplay meets comedy, the show playfully delves into the Star Wars universe, from Storm Trooper chorus lines to dominatrix Darth Vader to a lifesize Jabba the Hutt and much more, this is the perfect show for any fans of burlesque looking to relive their favorite space opera, in a totally new way. So grab your lightsaber and prepare to be amazed and amused by the best night out this side of Mos Eisley's famous cantina!
