Summer season imminent

No sooner have we brought lights down on the Spring Season (massive congratulations to our productions’ cast and crew for their amazing 3 shows), it’s time to kick off our Summer Season, launching on Monday!

No rest, more theatre to create! Join us Monday 15th April at the Hoop & Grapes pub and meet the rest of our merry band, hear from directors and generally have a merry old time.

Carried Away

Want to dip your toe in a nice manageable acting project this Spring?

We’re looking for actors to be in our Full Stack new writing showcase which this year it’s title and theme is: Carried Away.

After over a hundred submissions our team of directors are whittling it down to around fifteen 4-6 minute plays.

By auditioning for Carried Away you get the opportunity to potentially play very different characters, giving yourself an acting challenge and to display your versatility.

It’s also a great way to meet new people or catch up with KDC friends, as our showcase rehearsals are always very sociable and with a large number of people involved, there’s always someone up for a drink!

To find out more about how we audition and what the scripts might be, com along on Monday 15th April, 7pm at the Hoop and Grapes, Farringdon Road.

Listen… it’s Hush Now

And to close out our spring season, we bring you a psychological horror of a family dealing with their own tragedy. Physical theatre, shadow puppets, and an intimate soundscape delivered through personal headphones, come experience the world of Hush Now.

2-6 April, 7:30pm, Barons Court Theatre, £14/£10.

Box office: 020 8932 4747. Cash only!

Hush Now is a supernatural tale of a family fractured by grief. A multisensory experience of physical theatre, puppetry & immersive sound, the play centres around Penny, a teenager haunted by her own guilt. She navigates the world in a new way since her father was taken from her, but as the pain she feels festers and grows, so does the monster that begins to torment her…

Hand to God, all this week

Much congratulations to the cast of Maybe Radio, but there’s no rest for the wicked as we move straight on to this week’s “presentation”:

Moscow’s number hit music station is launching their annual phone-in charity fundraiser … or at least they would be, if their biggest rivals hadn’t already stolen their theme. Join the DJs and station management as they try to save the day whilst dealing with endangered animals, suspicious pies, the Russian navy, office romance and of course – the best musical acts. After all, this is – Maybe Radio.

New Writing callout

Once again it’s time to get your pens out (well, laptops I suppose) and get creative for our summer show “Carried Away”. We’re looking for very short scripts to produce for a week performance in July, so if you’ve always wanted to get into writing, or want a new challenge, this is for you!
