DYSMORPHIA
Etcetera Theatre, Camden
25 March - 6 April
‘Dysmorphia’ is a gripping theatrical whirlwind, unlike anything you’ve ever seen. Love, lust, friendship, betrayal and emotional trauma, all wound into a breathtaking, unpredictable rollercoaster ride from beginning to end. This show cannot be missed. Limited tickets remaining!
BOXED IN at Old Red Lion Theatre 15 - 26 April
Deftly interweaving wry irreverence with heart-rending emotion, Boxed In chronicles the story of a young woman teetering on the brink of crisis. Isolated in a cold, spartan room after a terrible heartbreak, her life is utterly devoid of both comfort and stimulation. All of which would be bad enough, even without the presence of a relentlessly annoying wooden Box with far too much to say for itself, for her liking.
AFTER AGINCOURT at Lion & Unicorn 25 Mar - 5 Apr
In visceral modern vernacular, Shakespeare's braggart soldier Pistol suffers through a brutal recollection of the before, during and aftermath of the battles that took place at Harfleur and Agincourt in 1415. Simultaneously, he obliterates the familiar and heroic image of Henry V who – as the story goes – courageously rallied his troops to fame and glory.

Supersonic Man by Chris Burgess at Southwark Playhouse 9 Apr - 3 May
Jazz hands and high drama combine in 'SUPERSONIC MAN' - a joyous and moving new musical that tells the story of Adam, a fun-loving ‘influencer’ having the time of his life amidst the LGBTQI+ community of Brighton. When he is struck down with a terminal condition he vows that this will not be the end. He will explore new ways to live and become a human cyborg!
OVERWHELM at Lion and Unicorn Theatre, Kentish Town 8 - 12 April
Three young men at a crossroads, each battling his own demons in a world that demands every bit of his soul. The play explores male loneliness, the dangers of online radicalization, and addiction.
WORKING PROGRESS COLLECTIVE ARE ASSOCIATE ARTISTS OF THE LION & UNICORN THEATRE
WITH YOU by Yuvraj Bhatia & Irina Ivanova
Bread & Roses Theatre, Clapham 22 - 26 Apr
In a world fragmented where connection is elusive, two lost souls experience it in ways unexpected. A relationship that defies time and space - where silences are heavy, gestures linger, and vulnerability emerges without warning. Step inside and experience what unfolds when emotions remain unspoken, yet impossible to ignore - a glimpse into a bond both fragile, and timeless.
