  • Google Calendar ICS

TIME OF THE MONTH (A PERIOD PERIOD PIECE) is a new dramatic comedy about two sisters who time travel on their periods.

A first period can feel like a bloody nightmare. However, sixteen-year-old Pet couldn’t be more excited to finally get her period until her older sister, Margo, informs her of a surprising family secret: when it’s their time of the month...they travel through time. The only way to return back to the present? By dying in the past (which is easy since they’ll be killed the second they say anything remotely feminist or slightly scientific). As Pet and Margo flow through time, bickering everywhere from Ancient Greece to 1950s suburbia, they not only learn from the errors of the past, but navigate their way through the exciting, frightening experience of womanhood.

HAPPY DAYS by S. Beckett

Happy Days, named by, The Independent as one of the 40 best plays of all time, is by Irish playwright Samuel Beckett and first performed in 1961.
It tells the story of Winnie, a woman who is buried up to her waist in a mound of earth, performing routine mundane tasks and spending the entirety of the play talking to herself and her husband, Willie, who is largely hidden and taciturn. What Beckett wants to represent is the endless repetition of dying moments rather than death itself. His characters wish to finish life but the end never comes because the clock becomes slower and slower. There is still time, always.
It explores themes of Loneliness and need for companionship and the failure and emptiness of language as death approaches. Perhaps it also reveals the enduring nature of marriage and love in sickness and with ageing. It is in the absurdist tradition and includes streams of consciousness influenced by Beckett’s respect for James Joyce

Matt Price - Raging Bill

  • 265 Camden High Street London, England, NW1 7BU United Kingdom (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Standup Comedian Matt Price spent 18 months training to win a trophy to honour the memory of his Grandad – Raging Bill Price - after he found some boxing trophies in his Grandad’s attic. As Kate Copstick from the Scotsman said of the show when she reviewed it at the Edinburgh Festival, “It is a story-telling, grandad-loving, face-punching, gangster-reminiscing, nursery-rhyme-singing, tear in yer eye, laugh out loud joy of an hour…”

She also described Matt’s interaction with the crowd as “beyond impressive.”

The show isn’t actually about boxing, there is a lot more to it than that. But you will definitely want to know what happens next. Most amateur fighters have their first fight within a few months. It took Matt 18 months before he was “ready.” So how and why does a painfully shy 21 year old go to a boxing gym and spend so long pursuing a sport he has zero talent for? Why does he hate Humpty Dumpty but love karaoke?

When you look at the screenshot from his fight, you might also be wondering. Which one is Matt? (It’s okay. Everyone asks that!)

This is a very funny show about getting back up when life has hit you hard. Years later and having been through some ups and downs, Matt learns something about himself that you’ll not forget! But you will love it.

“We are going to make our own Christmas.…A little bit of holiday magic. Created a la us.”

Four friends decide to spend Christmas together after finding themselves alone for the holiday. Ash is determined everything goes perfectly, Jo just wants to have fun. Liv is missing her wife and Bel is praying for today to go as smoothly and peacefully as possible. With a bit of inspiration from a cheeky festive figurine, they start to create a day of Yuletide celebrations just for them, with a mix of new and old traditions alike.

With carols, film references, and a catwalk show to liven things up, they truly embrace the chaos and fun that tackles the loneliness this time of year can bring. 

This show encompasses the feeling of found family, queer joy, and discusses loss in all the different ways it can occur. 

Come along to the premiere of Sleighs, El Caganer & the Perfect Christmas Day to get in the festive mood.

Playing at the Etcetera Theatre on the 11th of December at 18:30pm and 20:30pm , and the 13th of December at 21:00pm.

With carols, film references, and a catwalk show to liven things up, they truly embrace the chaos and fun that tackles the loneliness this time of year can bring. 

This show encompasses the feeling of found family, queer joy, and discusses loss in all the different ways it can occur. 

Come along to the premiere of Sleighs, El Caganer & the Perfect Christmas Day to get in the festive mood.

Playing at the Etcetera Theatre on the 11th of December at 18:30pm and 20:30pm , and the 13th of December at 21:00pm.

A Rehearsed Play Reading

 

A street in Bayswater, London, 2022. A Ukrainian restaurant. A woman who migrated in her twenties and found family. A Russian shop. A woman who struggles with family and doesn’t want to work the rest of her twenties in hospitality.

A London-set Eastern European play of naturalism and comedy, ‘Never Lies’ follows Vera and Lilia. As their lives change, the play explores intergenerational connection, mental health, romance, and aspiration while asking: to what extent does the political have to touch the personal?

Directed by Konstantin Kamenski

Careless Whispers: An Improv Double Bill

Rumourville and Lost The Plot presents: Careless Whispers 

Two of London's fast-rising improv comedy teams, one super-star show!

Improv is the art of creating a show entirely on the spot, no script, no pre-prepared story - pushing right to the end of our performer's wits, based on audience suggestions. Tonight, two very different shows share the stage for a back-to-back double bill. They are:

Rumourville: Have You Heard the Gossip? 

The improvised story of a small town where a rumour ruins all: romance, reputation, and petty revenge! As seen on BBC Upload, at Brighton Fringe, and Hoopla Impro.

Lost The Plot: You are invited to the premiere of the world’s newest musical!
Every line of dialogue, note on the piano and catchy chorus is fully improvised by our incredible cast of West End and worldwide performers. Will our hero save the day? Find true love? Or run away to join the circus? We don’t know either. Join us for one night only to find out!

The Sarah McGuinness Story: GRIT, GLITTER & GOBSHITES! A Cabaret Musical

  • 265 Camden High Street London, England, NW1 7BU United Kingdom (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

This is no ordinary cabaret. Sarah has been the muse of industry legends for over two decades. This is her life story.

Following an acclaimed run at the Edinburgh Fringe, The Sarah McGuinness Story is set to transfer to London. The Emmy-nominated documentary maker and musician, also known as an industry muse to entertainment legends, has turned the lens on herself to present a brand new poignant and powerful cabaret telling her life story. The critically acclaimed director of Believe: The Eddie Izzard Story and Noma: the story of Noma Dumezweni presents an extraordinary musical journey of her own life, blending the power of live performance and memory. The Sarah McGuinness Story runs from 15th Sept - 4th October at Etcetera Theatre in Camden.

Through the music of David Bowie, Kate Bush, Kurt Weill, Sondheim and Kander & Ebb’s “Cabaret” as well as a few of her own songs, this production takes audiences from Sarah’s childhood on the Irish border in Derry, examining both her complicated relationship with her Irish roots and her family’s dysfunction, through to the heights of her international success as her life intertwines with entertainment icons.

Turning her award-winning documentary process on herself and working in collaboration with Luisa Omielan, Angela Vargos and Jessica Willcocks Skeggs, McGuinness has delved into long forgotten memories, traumatic and hilarious in equal measure for the new production. Witness this powerhouse of a woman standing in her own force, breaking past the damage inflicted on her to find her own voice and take control of the narrative.

She draws a line in the sand against past oppressors with the help of epic songs such as Life on Mars and Babooshka. Be a part of the rallying cry for a better world whilst getting an intriguing insight into life amongst A-list celebrities, and hearing about the unexpected bonds formed with Hollywood legends.

“This is my own life story which only made sense after my mother’s death, when a close relative unlocked buried memories which completely changed my understanding of my early life and the negative self image it forced on me, while making me uniquely able to unlock the talents of others. It is a collection of stories and songs, well known and original, through which for the first time I am telling the truth about my life that I have been asked to reveal so often before.”
