At the heart of everything
  • Camden Fringe

We explore the world of a crazy college run by an array of staff that would put the phrase lunatics running the asylum a run for its money.

This fast paced pandemonium of physical and verbal japery is being directed by Andrew Loudon, someone who has the ability of, " Taking a script from the bottom drawer to the West End with such success as Little Women at the Duchess theatre in 2005 and Carrie's War at the Apollo in 2009.

Since you’re here…

… we have a small favour to ask. We don't want your money to support a hack's bar bill at Abattoir, but if you have a pound or two spare, we really encourage you to support a good cause. If this review has either helped you discover a gem or avoid a turkey, consider doing some good that will really make a difference.

You can donate to the charity of your choice, but if you're looking for inspiration, there are three charities we really like.

Mama Biashara
Kate Copstick’s charity, Mama Biashara, works with the poorest and most marginalised people in Kenya. They give grants to set up small, sustainable businesses that bring financial independence and security. That five quid you spend on a large glass of House White? They can save someone’s life with that. And the money for a pair of Air Jordans? Will take four women and their fifteen children away from a man who is raping them and into a new life with a moneymaking business for Mum and happiness for the kids.
