Direct from London's West End!

In the high-stakes, high-speed world of professional ice hockey, rivalries run deep... but this one runs hotter.

Deep-Heat Rivalry follows sworn enemies Shane Hollandaise and Ilya Stroganoff – two outrageously talented, aggressively handsome hockey superstars whose on-ice clashes are the stuff of legend. But behind the bruises, body checks and barely concealed tension lies a secret neither man is prepared to face: they are madly, inconveniently and spectacularly in love.

Loosely inspired by a certain hit TV series (and we mean very loosely), this filthy new parody written and directed by Olivier-nominated Trevor Ashley, crashes together locker-room drama, forbidden romance, parody songs and absolutely no understanding of sport whatsoever.

Expect power ballads. Expect power plays. Expect emotional meltdowns in tiny towels.

With outrageous comedy, shameless innuendo and a score that ranges from power ballad to party pop, Deep-Heat Rivalry is less about hockey... and more about hooking up.

It’s not just a rivalry.

It’s a full-contact comedy.
