Everyone's favourite Quizmaster, Daniel Caplin, gives tonight's gifted contestants the chance to play for the ultimate prize - to discover what lies behind the Door of Truth. Newcomer Sandra has always been desperate to find out and she's more than a threat to our reigning champion.

But the lights are burning, there are beads of sweat forming and the audience have stopped laughing. None of this is right.

Rob Drummond's Quiz Show is an urgent and timely response to our celebrity-obsessed world. 

Directed by the Traverse's Associate Director, Hamish Pirie, whose recent work includes, Mark Thomas: Bravo Figaro! and Olivier Award-nominated Salt, Root and Roe by Tim Price.

Space: Traverse One
Age recommendation: 16+
