We’re holding the first annual KDC Awards Night on Saturday 23 July, 8pm. We’ll be handing out awards, getting together with casts from the past year, and having a good old time.
Bored of the same-old standard awards categories? Us too. Rather than best actor, best director etc, we’re opting for awards that recognise some great moments in each show from the past year. We’ll be sharing more details and how to cast your votes in the week of the event.
If you’ve been involved in – or have seen – a KDC show in the last year, come along to cheer on the nominees as we celebrate a fabulous time spent making some great theatre together.

This summer KDC invites you to audition for You, Me, and Noor, KDC Theatre’s annual new writing competition and show.
Each year we set a brand new brief, and invite writers to submit new short plays. The winning entries are honed into a one-of-a-kind intertwined production, with a group of actors, directors and writers collaborating to bring the theme to life. This year we’re excited to present our re-vamped version of our Full Stack production.
Want to learn more? Come along to KDC’s Season Launch at Theatre Deli Bar, 7pm Tuesday 3 May.
Hear the directors and showrunner speak about our summer production and answer your questions at the Season Launch. You can also talk to them about getting involved in other backstage ways.

Congratulations to our Real Inspector Hound cast for a sell out run – but it’s not over! We now present Imprints, Tuesday-Saturday at Drayton Arms Theatre.
“What would you do if I died?”
In the midst of all the silly questions couples ask themselves,
sometimes a serious one will settle, and take root.
What if we could answer the unanswerable?
A new comedic play exploring the frivolous glory of relationships,
the devastating grief of loss, and the healing power of support.
Devised & written by the cast and director.
Performance 5-9 April, tickets here!
All this week at the Barons Court Theatre – almost sold out.
Last few tickets available here Now sold out! Never mind though, there are still tickets available for next week’s play, Imprints
