We are really excited to announce Spare Room has won an award!!! 😭

Thank you so much to the Derek Awards for naming us ‘Best Drama’ at the Edinburgh Fringe 2026. What a lovely way to round off our Edinburgh run. We’ll now be hibernating for the foreseeable as we recover x

SPARE ROOM’S REVIEWS ARE IN 🪩

From Camden Fringe to the Edinburgh Fringe - 57 stars, 31 glowing audience reviews, 14 sold out shows and 8 award nominations 😭

Thank you endlessly to every single person who came to see Spare Room. We have poured our hearts into this show for over three years now and we cannot believe the response we’ve had. It’s both so rewarding and so heart breaking that this story hits close to home for so many. A truly heartfelt thank you to all the audience members who have reached out and shared their story - it is evident that we must continue to talk about these urgent, all too frequent experiences.

A massive thank you to our partners enough and . We are honoured to be working with such important organisations to ensure we make a real difference. Thank you for choosing Spare Room.

We literally couldn’t have made it to Edinburgh without the immense generosity of those who donated to our GoFundMe. Thank you so so much to each and every one of you for helping to make our dreams a reality. A special thank you too to Louisa and Barry for housing all eight of us… not many would volunteer to have a group of actors take over their space for two and a half weeks (sorry and thank you - hope you’ve recovered).

To all the family, friends and strangers who have supported Spare Room this far, we cannot thank you enough. Here’s to more of Spare Room coming soon… 💫

Our final reviews are in and we cannot thank you all enough. Big soppy post with proper thanks incoming but for now just...

Inspired by true events, Spare Room follows Jodie as she takes the plunge and applies for a room in a house share. Confronted with the unexpected world of chunder charts, STIs and tangible testosterone, this wasn’t the fresh start Jodie imagined.

Entirely set in a student living room, expect to be thoroughly immersed in the lives of these badly behaved twenty-somethings who’ll leave you cackling one minute and speechless the next, in this honest insight into masculinity, mental health and consent.
