Written in verse with the gleeful irreverence of Roald Dahl’s Revolting Rhymes\, Fishwives catapults the forgotten heroines of history onto centre stage—louder\, looser\, and far less ladylike than you remember. \nPenned and performed by seasoned comedy poet Abi Unwin-Smith (RCSSD)\, with a decade of live mischief under her belt\, this anarchic hour fuses poetry\, storytelling and movement with the high-energy chaos of vaudeville. Expect stripping suffragettes\, scandalous monarchs and the odd persecuted pudenda—no petticoat will be left unruffled. \nAfter a decade on the UK and Australian comedy and poetry circuits\, Fishwives now bursts forth as a full-throttle show: a bawdy mash-up of brains\, bosoms\, and belly laughs. In an age when women’s rights still hang precariously in the balance\, this show wields laughter as both weapon and salve. \nSo gird your loins\, ladies and gents. These lusty bawds have stories to tell—and it’s about bloody time we listened.

And she’s single. The L Word meets Ancient Greece in a joyful\, irreverent new play about love\, lesbians\, and coping with a history that’s written you out of it. \n“If a tree falls in a forest and no one hears it\, does it make a sound? If two lesbians f*ck and no one records it\, did it happen? Sorry let me rephrase that: if two women fall in love but none of the men write about it\, did it happen?”\nBut it’s not only the men. Because on an island called Lesbos\, Sappho is writing… \n★★★★ Everything Theatre — “’The most delightful of plays”\n★★★★ Lou Reviews — “A beautifully composed show with a heart in it.”\nFringe Theatre Awards Nominations 2025 — Best New Play\, Best Production\, Lead Actor (play)\, Supporting Actor (play) \nProduced and presented by Themis Theatre \nGet your tickets HERE URL:https://eventsforlondon.co.uk/event/schrodingers_lesbians/2026-08-09/ LOCATION:The Cockpit\, Gateforth Street\, London\, NW8 8EH\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:London Theatre,Performing Arts ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://eventsforlondon.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/Schrodingers-Lesbians_Square-Image_No-Text_1500x1500_0.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="The Cockpit Theatre":MAILTO:reception@thecockpit.org.uk END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20260808T190000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20260808T200000 DTSTAMP:20260704T181732Z CREATED:20260704T181732Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260704T181732Z UID:30130649-1786215600-1786219200@eventsforlondon.co.uk SUMMARY:Hell Hath No Fury DESCRIPTION:Three women. Two worlds. One ongoing fight for justice.\nGreek mythology mirrors present day courtroom drama\, as this all female company reinvigorates the Furies and reveals their power within the women of today. \nThebes: a landscape of chaos and destruction. Enter The Furies. Women that represent the true meaning of sisterhood and the divine feminine.\nBut it’s not all happy families; the Furies have upset the Gods. When Zeus bites off more than he can chew he calls on the Furies to finish what he so carelessly started.\nWill they be able to finish it? Or will it tear them apart?\nLondon: Three lawyers. One case. Multiple victims.\nCan they untangle this mess? Or will those in power stand in the way of justice?\nAs we shift between the brutality of Thebes and the psychological warfare of courtroom drama\, we question what it means to be woman\, the legacy of those that came before us\, and ultimately… Fury \nFrankie Jean’s debut play as a writer\, a love letter to the power of womanhood and a community for female creatives.\nMay we all find our Fury! \nWritten by Frankie Jean\nDirected by Jessica Whiley \nGet your tickets HERE URL:https://eventsforlondon.co.uk/event/hell-hath-no-fury/2026-08-08/ LOCATION:The Cockpit\, Gateforth Street\, London\, NW8 8EH\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Events in London,London Theatre,Performing Arts ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://eventsforlondon.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/Brochure_Digital_Text_Cockpit.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="The Cockpit Theatre":MAILTO:reception@thecockpit.org.uk END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20260805T190000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20260805T200000 DTSTAMP:20260617T141829Z CREATED:20260617T141809Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260617T141829Z UID:30130178-1785956400-1785960000@eventsforlondon.co.uk SUMMARY:The Writing of Stones DESCRIPTION:The Writing of Stones is an odyssey to the beginning and the end of human creativity. A cheeky\, dreamy\, brainy blast of high-energy physical theatre performed by humans and stones. \nWelcome to a hijacked meditation\, a psychedelic school trip\, a reverie on the reality-altering nature of attention\, the limits of language\, and humanity’s place in nature. \nInspired by the writings of Roger Caillois\, this show is a train ride into the depths of your subconscious. Expect otherworldly phantoms\, surrealism\, science\, illuminations\, aesthetic philosophy\, The Sistine Chapel\, your worst haircut\, an Impressionist lunch\, and lots and lots of stones. \nThe Writing of Stones is a physical theatre show about the consciousness of stones that asks if art will outlive humanity. \nOn a reckless romp through the history of art\, humans and stones search for a way of being between human and mineral\, subject and object\, movement and stillness\, sacred and profane. \nAnd\, in the end\, we ask: who really will have the last word? \nDirection: Emma Wagstaff and Dominic Weatherby.\nCreation and performance: Elmira Olberholzer\, John Harper\, Emma Wagstaff\, and Dominic Weatherby.\nOriginal devising company: Juliana de Aragão\, John Harper\, Emma Wagstaff\, and Dominic Weatherby. \n‘Mesmeric musings on memory and materiality\, optics and apocalypse.’\nAudience Member \nGet your tickets HERE URL:https://eventsforlondon.co.uk/event/the-writing-of-stones/2026-08-05/ LOCATION:The Cockpit\, Gateforth Street\, London\, NW8 8EH\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Events in London,London Theatre,Performing Arts ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://eventsforlondon.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/group-THE-WRITING-OF-STONES-.png ORGANIZER;CN="The Cockpit Theatre":MAILTO:reception@thecockpit.org.uk END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20260805 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20260817 DTSTAMP:20260728T031011Z CREATED:20260728T031008Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260728T031011Z UID:30132849-1785888000-1786924799@eventsforlondon.co.uk SUMMARY:BIG KID CIRCUS - Jurassic DESCRIPTION:Step right up and prepare to be transported back in time with Big Kid Circus: Jurassic — the most thrilling and imaginative production in the UK circus calendar for 2026!

Stripping away theatrical polish\, the production refuses to conceal its mechanics. \nWhat emerges is a sonic and visual sculpture that confronts the ache of placelessness\, asking what it means to belong when one’s home feels imagined\, and what it means to be seen when your own name feels foreign in your mouth. \nIntimate\, funny\, unsettling\, and deeply\, deeply human. A salute to the progress in life\, to being here\, now\, right now. On stage.

That’s why Professor Handler David is here to give a lecture on the kink of pup play and teach London how to turn their bitchboys into good boys. What begins as a traditional lecture quickly transcends labels through stand-up\, homonormative puppets\, punk music\, gay sex\, and multimedia visuals to become an emotionally provocative and boldly introspective reflection on queer identity. “Filled with Puppy Power” (Watermark News)\, Pup Play “has a heart the size of Clifford the Big Red Dog.” (Broadway World)Noah Alfred Pantano writes and stars. He has been described by critics as “immeasurably talented” (Broadway World)\, “sharp\, quick\, and uncompromising” (GSCENE)\, and “bold\, brazen and stratospherically cheeky\, concealing beneath the girth of energy a good heart and a probing mind.” (Lost in Theatreland). Pantano was awarded runner-up for “Activist of the Year” at the National Queer Student Awards. His other work Standing On A Nail was the best-selling play of Colchester Fringe in 2023. \nPup Play has won five awards and tours around the world raising over $1400+ (so far) for LGBTQ+ charities.\nThe show features music by Jake and the Nowhere\, Alan Xtra\, and Tungsten Lungs.\nThe profits from this performance will be donated to a LGBTQ+ charity.\nPup Play is sponsored by Mr.Riegillio\, MessyPup\, BoboBear\, Sent With Pride\, and Essex Startups.
