SUMMARY:Schrödinger's Lesbians

SUMMARY:Where Are We Going With This? -  The Cockpit
DESCRIPTION:Why would two strangers sitting on a bench at 2am just start talking? \nThis touching debut follows two students and their struggles to open up to one another\, exploring the awkward comedy and profound intimacy that can occur in those one-off conversations with a stranger. They flirt\, fight\, and fumble along a tightrope walk of social norms and personal boundaries\, discussing their outlook on the future\, their mental health struggles\, and\, eventually\, why they ended up on a bench in the middle of the night. \nHe is a quick-witted and jovial pessimist. She is a distrusting\, cynical optimist. Together\, they bring out the ugliest and most tender parts of one another as they learn that often\, the hardest part of opening up to a stranger is enduring the silence that follows. \nThis charming\, One act\, two-hander explores loneliness\, self-discovery\, and that difficult transition into adulthood. \nComing off a successful run at both the Edinburgh and Brighton Fringe Festivals\, ByGeorge! Productions present their London debut of Where Are We Going With This?. Serving as the companies mission statement\, Where Are We Going With This? focuses on the complexities of interpersonal rleltionships with raw honesty and heartfelt levity. \n‘powerful and timely reminder of how vital it is to communicate and share’\n★★★★\nRichard Stamp – The Wee Review \n‘Brilliantly written\, brilliantly performed\, you will want to know what happens next.’\n★★★★\nThe Derrick Awards \nGet your tickets HERE.

SUMMARY:Hell Hath No Fury

SUMMARY:XQUENDA
DESCRIPTION:XQUENDA is the story of a young indigenous woman from rural Oaxaca\, Mexico\, and her search for justice after the disappearance and murder of her best friend\, as no one seems to care due to their social and economic conditions. Her protest is through her Poems.

SUMMARY:Oh Pseudolus! - Cockpit Theatre
DESCRIPTION:This is a modern retelling of the classic Roman Comedy “Pseudolus” by Plautus. In this version\, we find the titular Pseudolus working at the world’s largest Halloumi company\, in modern-day Athens. She is an executive assistant for the CEO’s son\, Calidorous. Calidorous has finally gotten himself the girl of his dreams\, the beautiful Phoenecium. Still\, disaster strikes when the vile pimp Ballio tries to sell her into sex slavery\, attempting to ship her off to some unnamed oil-rich country. Calidorous is too heartbroken to sign Pseudolus’ end-of-year bonus check. It becomes up to her to figure out a way to rescue Phoenecium in order to make him smile. That way\, he can finally sign her hard-earned check. Talk about late-stage capitalism!  \nThis is a laugh-out-loud comedy\, full of hijinks\, tricks\, love\, lies\, and schemes; not to mention a slice of Halloumi or two along the way. It’s just as much of a hilarious romp as it was two thousand years ago! This is “Oh NO’s” way of saying: Leave the kids at home\, and no\, you don’t need to come wearing a toga. \n“Oh Pseudolus!” Features an all-star cast: \n\nCelebrated director (Hurt by Paradise)\, actress (Bunker\, This England)\, and poet (Tomorrow’s Woman) Greta Bellamacina leads as the titular Pseudolus. The show was written with her exclusively in mind\, and you see why when she hits the stage. She is a comedic tour de force who will have you doubled over for the entire show.\nActress Rebecca Hazlewood (The Good Place\, The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox) stars as Charinus\, the affable best friend of Calidorus\, bringing her signature energy and charisma to the role. Rebecca lights up the stage as only she can\, making Charinus every bit the lovable friend that Calidorus needs and the audience wants.\n\nAll of this mayhem can only come from the writer-director team (Conor Bifulco and Dalton Scott) behind “Oh Hillary!\,” the only comedy about the Clintons\, at last year’s Edinburgh Fringe. This is a hilarious story that remains just as funny today as it was 2000 years ago\, made even funnier with Conor’s modernizations. “Oh Pseudolus!” maintains the soul of the original play while still distinctly being an “Oh No Productions” joint\, highlighting their go-go-go comedic sensibilities. \nGet your tickets HERE

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

SUMMARY:Transit - London Theatre
DESCRIPTION:How do you pack a life into 23 kilograms? One item at a time. \nTransit is an award-winning\, genre-bending investigation of identity\, belonging and migration. Told through a series of vignettes utilising physical theatre\, multilingual performance\, poetry\, dance\, multimedia\, practical lights and music\, Transit delicately navigates the feeling of being ‘too foreign for here\, too foreign for home.’ \nFrom the endless cycle of unpacking and repacking to wondering when you can stop being considered ‘a foreigner’ to building community and hope amidst uncertainty\, this deeply human piece is a love letter to anyone who has ever moved away from home. \nBased on true stories gathered from migrants across the UK\, Transit asks: what does it mean to settle in the space between languages\, cultures and identities? \nAll performances of Transit are creatively captioned.

SUMMARY:Richard III - London Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Following acclaimed productions in Madrid and internationally\, Argentine director Nicolás Pérez Costa presents a new London adaptation of Shakespeare’s Richard III. \nFar from a traditional staging\, this production transforms the classic tragedy into a visceral\, dark\, and deeply human contemporary theatrical experience. Performed in the round\, this physically driven reinterpretation places the audience directly inside a brutal and decaying universe where power is fought through bodies\, rhythm\, and violence. \nBrought to life by an international ensemble cast\, the show combines intense physical theatre\, live percussion\, dynamic character transformations\, and a bold Latin vision to explore the timeless mechanisms of ambition\, seduction\, and political destruction. It is a raw\, poetic\, and high-energy experience designed specifically for contemporary audiences\, theatre enthusiasts\, and lovers of bold\, visual storytelling who want to see Shakespeare re-imagined for the modern world.

SUMMARY:The Mysterious Case of Sir Percival Lancelot and His Missing Ear
DESCRIPTION:Sir Percival Lancelot is dead. \nThe family has gathered.\nThe will is about to be read.\nAnd somewhere inside Lancelot Manor… an ear has gone missing. \nFollowing the success of last year’s Cinderella – The Elders Panto\, the Church Street Elders return to The Cockpit with a brand-new devised murder mystery full of secrets\, lies\, absurd family rivalries\, suspicious servants\, inheritance battles\, and increasingly questionable detective work. \nPart Agatha Christie parody\, part ensemble theatre experiment\, The Mysterious Case of Sir Percival Lancelot and His Missing Ear has been created through improvisation\, storytelling\, physical theatre\, and collective devising by members of Dendê Collective’s Drama for Elders programme. \nExpect dramatic revelations\, chaotic reconstructions\, hidden motives\, terrible alibis\, and a manor house full of people who may — or may not — have had something to do with Sir Percival’s untimely end. \nAnd then… there is the second death. \nUsing a playful theatrical language inspired by classic murder mysteries\, ensemble storytelling\, and highly imaginative low-fi staging\, the cast transform chairs\, bodies\, sound\, and movement into the strange and crumbling world of Lancelot Manor. \nNo two performances are likely to be exactly the same.\nCome and help solve the mystery… if you can.

SUMMARY:Family Shakespeare: Pyramus & Thisbe - June
DESCRIPTION:The Rude Mechanicals have been asked to perform a play at the Duke’s wedding. Trouble is\, they’ve forgotten to write it! Can you help??? \nDo you remember Pyramus & Thisbe? The romantic tragedy that Bottom & The Rude Mechanicals were asked to perform for the Duke in A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM? In this interactive theatre experience\, the audience put their heads together to add the finishing touches to the Rude Mechanicals’ play\, helping to create a completely original version! Combining Shakespeare’s original text with fresh ideas from the audience\, the play is fleshed out with music\, props\, puppets\, rhymes\, sound effects & killer dance moves\, resulting in a completely fabulous and totally unique performance! \nEach show follows a simple narrative structure that the audience helps to develop\, encouraging kids to use their imagination as they help to construct characters\, write songs\, create stories\, invent sound effects and more. Each choice enhances their storytelling skills\, exposes them to the infinite possible storylines a tale can take\, and leaves them with a huge sense of pride in their comedy\, musicality and creativity. And because so much of the show is led by the audience\, you’ll never see the same show twice! \nOur shows can be enjoyed by kids of all ages\, and grown-ups too! For participation\, the show is best suited for ages 5 years and above; but for younger audiences\, there is plenty of music\, colour\, and silly comedy to be the perfect spectacle from a lap! \nHullabaloo are passionate about making theatre accessible and encouraging on-your-feet\, wild\, inventive fun where kids can get creative\, free their imagination\, discover some hidden talents\, and learn some of the best theatre ever written. \nSo many kids approach Shakespeare with fear. It gets thrust upon them as teenagers\, with a sudden expectation to understand it. This often results in them feeling overwhelmed and feeling that it’s not for them. But what if they were exposed to it earlier? Hullabaloo believe that the earlier kids are exposed to this great wordsmith\, the better. They believe the sooner kids are exposed to its familiar language and great stories\, the better. Each show exposes children to some of the finest and funniest of Shakespeare’s language\, which will hopefully lead them to view Shakespeare as something fun\, exciting and accessible.

SUMMARY:Anonymous 11780 - London Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Anonymous 11780\, written and directed by Hila Sedighi\, was created during the days of deep sorrow and unrest in Iran. \n“A story of five decades of brutal repression in a land\, emerging from the days of bloodshed on the 8th and 9th of January…” \nThis eight-episode theatrical work invites the audience to witness fragments of life\, memory\, and loss through a poetic and narrative structure. Moving between intimate personal moments and collective historical memory\, the piece reflects on violence\, grief\, and the emotional weight carried across generations.\nAt its core\, the work honors the stories of eight individuals who lost their lives during the events of 18 and 19 Dey (8th and 9th of January)\, offering a contemplative and emotionally charged exploration of loss\, identity\, resistance\, and remembrance. Through live performance\, poetic language\, and visual storytelling\, Anonymous 11780 creates a space where personal testimony and collective memory intersect.

SUMMARY:I Made You A Mixtape - June
DESCRIPTION:A new movement-theatre experience from Response Theatre Company. \nWelcome to the party you always wished you were invited to. \n‘I Made You a Mixtape’ throws you straight into the heart of a 90s college dorm hangout\, complete with lava lamps\, folding tables\, plastic cups\, old-school camcorders\, and the greatest hits of the decade. Nine girls arrive for one last night together before their lives change forever. What starts as a carefree evening of music and dancing unfolds into a deeply human collage of friendship\, nostalgia\, heartbreak\, and joy. With each track they play\, a new world opens: improvised music videos\, chaotic games\, secret confessions\, and the kind of laughter that makes your chest ache. \nCreated using the Response Movement Method\, a hybrid of Meisner acting and movement theatre\, the performers treat the music as their scene partner and the choreography as their text\, allowing the story to emerge in real time. No two performances are the same. What you witness is truthfully lived\, not acted. \nWarm\, hilarious\, tender\, and wildly nostalgic\, ‘I Made You a Mixtape’ is a love letter to growing up\, growing apart\, and the friends who made us who we are. It’s a 90s coming-of-age party\, and everyone’s invited.

The festival has remained fiercely mobile\, community-driven\, and joyfully chaotic. In April 2026\, 14/48 comes to London for the first time at The Cockpit. Over one weekend\, artists from around the city\, country\, and world will be invited to come and create fourteen brand-new ten-minute plays from scratch in just forty-eight hours. No scripts in advance. No rehearsals beforehand. Not even pairings. Just trust\, risk\, caffeine\, and collaboration.
