About RON

RON is a theatre production at Riverside Studios in London, running for 60 minutes. The play is a genre-bending work that sits somewhere between absurdist comedy and visceral drama, centring on unrequited love and the extreme lengths a person might go to in pursuit of it. The title functions as both a name and a recurring motif, threading through the production's language and logic in ways that are deliberately off-kilter.

The piece is pitched as a queer odyssey, blending tonal shifts, graphic violence, and dark humour into a single compact hour. It carries a content warning for graphic descriptions of bloody violence and sudden loud sounds, and is suitable for audiences aged 15 and older.

What to expect

Audiences follow a narrative that refuses to settle into a single genre, moving between moments of comedy, menace, and emotional directness. The production uses its short running time to keep the pressure consistent, with little room for the pace to drop. The central question, how far love can push a person before it becomes something else entirely, runs underneath every scene.

Tickets are for a 60-minute performance with no interval. Seating and schedule details are confirmed at the time of booking, and the production is staged within Riverside Studios' flexible performance spaces.
