Blocks Falling: The Tetris Musical
Moscow, 1984. A Soviet Engineer is bored at his desk. He creates a simple game on his work computer, purely for fun. Due to events completely outside of his control, his pet project will soon become the most successful game in history, endangering his life, reigniting the industry and bringing about the fall of The USSR.
Blocks Falling recounts the true events of Tetris with farcical flair. It is a comedy epic about success, espionage and the fraught relationship between art and money.
20 Minute Highlight Reel, from The Cockpit Theatre R&D, London
In May 2025, we showcased Blocks Falling at The Birmingham Hippodrome as part of BEAM 2025. It was selected as one of The Stage’s Top 10 picks from the event.
Later, in June, we put on an R&D performance at The Cockpit. The event sold out and was extremely well-received.
Since then, we have signed with producer Danielle Tarento and are further developing the show with an aim for a residency or UK tour in the future.
“Another Mickey Jo one to watch, definitely. I think that this could be very big.”
“Side-splitting.”
Feedback for blocks Falling…
“Balances the heaviness and grand narratives of Cold War history, and instead lets us see the people, the feelings, the real connections underneath it all.”
Conjured! A Conjuring Parody Musical
In 1971, Ed and Lorraine Warren established themselves as America’s most renowned paranormal investigators. In 2013, an acclaimed film series about the lives of the Warrens began. Finally in 2024, Rat Hands Theatre started work on the one thing nobody asked for: a highly blasphemous, gay-as-hell musical parody of the highest grossing horror franchise in history.
Conjured! is an hour long, one act show with 13 original songs.

Lazenby
Coming soon, Lazenby is an in-development musical about the true story of the man who played James Bond for only one movie, despite having no acting experience whatsoever.
It is a queer comedy that looks at masculinity, sexuality and the complicated legacy of Bond’s cultural impact.
