Park Theatre’s smaller space is all-a-shimmer for the foreseeable future as it hosts CANDY, a one-man debut play by Tim Fraser, produced and performed by Michael Waller. The shimmering comes from the shining copper strands which cling to the walls and surround the audience, creating a workingmen’s club ‘bingo night’ atmosphere.

The Almeida’s entrance is presently festooned with pink and white ribbons, the foyer adorned with an archway of balloons, whilst the auditorium itself proclaims a marriage ceremony about to get underway - complete with buffet table bearing Leyla and Joel and a wedding cake positioned to one side of the seating area reserved for family.

Southwark Playhouse has long served such a valuable function for both playwrights and the actors and musicians who bring their work to life.

The renowned North London venue offers theatregoers a unique opportunity to enjoy a beautiful amalgamation of Japanese movement, puppetry and projection through The Garden of Words. Adapted from Makoto Shinkai’s sensitive story and anime, the production explores the fragility borne of loneliness experienced in a metropolis and the bonds which can form when humanity connects under strained conditions.
