“Too Many Cuckoos”, a new farcical comedy by Greg Freeman, premiering at The Hen & Chickens Theatre Oct 21-24

A musician makes a reckless bet that he can survive a week without using his credit card. But when his busking plan collapses on day one, it sparks chaos. Friends get pulled into dubious schemes, strange rituals, and escalating mayhem—revealing they’re probably not just their own worst enemies, but everyone else’s too.

Produced by CC Productions & OnBook Arts

⭐ STEEL MAGNOLIAS – OFF-WEST END REVIVAL ANNOUNCED ⭐

An Off-West End revival of the classic play STEEL MAGNOLIAS has been announced.

The fringe revival will play the OSO Arts Centre this April.

All the ladies in Chinquapin, Louisiana come to Truvy’s beauty salon to have their hair done. Outspoken Truvy dispenses shampoo and free advice to the town’s curmudgeon, Miss Ouiser, the eccentric Miss Clairee, and the local social leader, M’Lynn, whose daughter, Shelby is about to get married.

Comedy turns to tragedy when Shelby, a diabetic, risks her life with a dangerous pregnancy. Confronted with the harshness of mortality, the ladies draw together to find strength – and love – in the wake of tragedy.

Starring Nova Skipp as M’Lynn, Isabella Heaver as Shelby, Robin Miller as Ouiser, Joanna Strafford as Annelle, Zoë Ann Bown as Clairee and Kate Harbour as Truvy.

STEEL MAGNOLIAS is also known for the 1989 acclaimed film adaptation starring Sally Field, Dolly Parton, Shirley MacLaine, Daryl Hannah, Olympia Dukakis and Julia Roberts.

STEEL MAGNOLIAS by Robert Harling, is directed by Jason Moore, featuring design by lan Nicholas, produced by Skipp Productions, in association with OnBook Arts.

STEEL MAGNOLIAS is playing OSO Arts Centre, London, running from 14th – 18th April 2026, with tickets on sale now.
