Bleak Expectations

by Mark Evans

Performed by Oundle School



Charles Dickens plot meets Rowan Atkinsons humour in this bonkers adaptation of the famous novel Great Expectations. Bleak expectations follows the Three half-orphans Pip, Pippa and Poppy in their escapades defeating the dastardly Mr Gently Benevolent who chases their every step within a Victorian Britain.


Along the way they must fight the Hardthrasher siblings, find love, and get their inheritance before their time and luck runs out. Will the three siblings live happily ever after in the smog filled streets of London or will Mr Gently Benevolent gain the upper hand and achieve his dream of revenge and financial stability.


A hilarious play with unique characters, feral penguins and localised snowstorms leading to a final fantastic climax of Orphan versus the world.
