Accidental Death of an Anarchist
by Dario Fo
Adapted by Tim Supple & Alan Cumming
This amateur production of Accidental Death of an Anarchist is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French Ltd.
A master of disguise walks into a police station… and chaos ensues.
When a cunning con artist finds himself in police custody, he discovers something far more valuable than any heist—the perfect opportunity to turn the tables on authority itself. Armed with lightning-quick wit and a dangerous talent for impersonation, he transforms an ordinary day at the station into an extraordinary game of cat and mouse.
What begins as simple trickery evolves into something much more explosive, where every joke hides a barb, every laugh reveals a crack in the system, and nothing is quite what it seems. In this whirlwind of mistaken identities and verbal acrobatics, the question isn’t just who’s fooling whom—it’s whether anyone has the stomach for the truth when it arises.
A razor-sharp political farce that proves the most dangerous weapon isn’t a gun—it’s laughter.
Back by popular demand Ray Bubbles fills the stage with giant bubble storms, dancing shapes, and more — all powered by soap and science. A fun, inclusive show loved by families and sensory-friendly audiences alike.
Lesley Dabson: A London Year
10 – 23 October 2025
Lesley Dabson describes herself as a “literal painter”. “When a scene has hooked my attention,
I can’t wait to capture it in oil”. And so it was at our first meeting: within minutes Dabson’s keen eye
has captured shapes, colours, textures; a particular vista or view in and from the HLSI building where
we meet.
In this exhibition, A London Year, Dabson shares city scenes throughout the seasons and in all lights.
She works in oil paint, both in her studio and en plein air directly in front of her subject.
Both practices bring different elements to her work. The immediacy of a changing scene, where
light, tides and weather influence a plein air piece and the calmer atmosphere of her studio where
she can take a more considered approach. “There is no difference in style or brushwork” Dabson
explains,“ but both aspects are important and complementary in my practice”.
Draughtsmanship is fundamental to Dabson’s practice. She is a member of the Hesketh Hubbard
Life Drawing Society, meeting weekly in the Mall Galleries to draw. The professional models, who
live and work in the city choose their own poses; Dabson works at speed and with accuracy. The
studies, primarily in charcoal on textured paper, are included in A London Year.
Dabson has lived in London for over forty years and her work is firmly rooted in the changing
seasons of the city.
In 2024 her work was included in Royal Academy Summer Exhibition, she is an elected member
of Chelsea Art Society and the Royal Society of Birmingham Artists.

The Piaf Story is an acoustic storytelling performance about the life of Edith Piaf and the songs that shaped her career by singer Susan Black accompanied by pianist Aled Thomas.
From the slums of Belleville, Paris to the top of the Eiffel Tower singing ‘Non je ne regrette rien’ just before she died, Susan Black relates the dramatic story of Edith Piaf.
Susan will share anecdotes about Edith’s lovers, joys and tragedies as she sings ‘Les Chansons Réalistes,’ the songs for which Edith is so remembered, including ‘La Vie en Rose,’ ‘Hymne à l’amour’ and ‘Non je ne regrette rein.’
Accompanied by her pianist Aled Thomas, The Piaf Story is an intimate view into a remarkable woman’s life whose voice enabled her to survive through adversity and still has an impact on us today.

Francis Beckett’s new play Make England Great Again is set just after the Britons First Party wins its first ever general election victory, and its charismatic leader Max Moore enters 10 Downing Street.
It’s a comedy, but also a warning.
Francis Beckett’s last three plays have had successful runs at Upstairs at the Gatehouse. The New Statesman called A Modest Little Man “a moving and entertaining play about Clement Attlee.”
In The House Magazine, John McDonnell MP wrote of Vodka with Stalin: “As always with Francis’s work, you can’t fail to become emotionally close to the characters.”
His Tom Lehrer is Teaching Math and Doesn’t Want to Talk to You was “A glorious celebration of one of the brightest, wittiest and most principled satirists”.
Marking 30 years since the genocide in Srebrenica, this powerful new show brings survivor testimonies to the stage with projected visuals, movement and live performance. A poignant call to remember, reflect, and never repeat.

“Superb interpretations… impressionistic, floating, wildly romantic.” – Peter Quinn.
