Billed as a London love story, "Our House" centres on two teenagers living in North London to the backdrop of Madness' hit songs.

Madness frontman Graham 'Suggs' McPherson said: "We've always been theatrical without understanding theatre. I think our songs, in terms of the theatre, have become timeless and I have been really excited watching this show develop."

Our House is the story of Joe and his girlfriend Sarah who live in modern-day London, and follows two different courses his life could have taken following a petty crime.
