A Clockmaker’s Obsession
World premiere of a new musical with crashing waves, swelling music, and an emotional storm across the 18th century that will make you wish you’d brought your life jacket.
Come with us on an epic voyage across time and space to share the trials of a simple clockmaker who lost almost everything in his quest to save others.
A true story of betrayal, obsession, and injustice, conquered only by the love of his family and the intervention of Mad King George.
Ages: 8+
A white far-right party leader.
A black Caribbean diplomat.
And a white Oxford-educated Home Office government official.
They all give a speech. On the same day, at different times, in various locations.
They all give a speech about the one million people who migrated from the Caribbean to Britain between 1948-1973 (The Windrush Generation) and the scandal that followed in 2018.
This June, we are delighted to present the ethereal works of William Cai, Chinese painter whose feather-light strokes immortalise the beauty of nature.
William Cai is an internationally renowned artist, accomplished in both freestyle brushwork (Xieyi) and fine detailed brushwork (Gungbi). His work has received many awards and been collected by museums all over the world. In the early 1990s, he was hired by the Victoria and Albert Museum to teach Chinese painting, and has since taught the discipline at various art institutions in the UK.

East London Shakespeare Festival is heading to Lauderdale House with sparkling rom-com Much Ado About Nothing.
Sun-soaked mischief & romance under the Mediterranean stars. Set against the luxurious backdrop of a modern-day Messina, this opulent tale is brimming with wit, trickery & mischief with heart coming out on top. With ELSF’s trademark contemporary twists and turns, high-energy party numbers and audience participation. A family friendly night!
The East London Shakespeare Festival (ELSF) merges the contemporary culture of London with the inspirational storytelling of Shakespeare’s plays in outdoor parks and community spaces across London. They launched in 2021 with a magical, riotous, sold-out production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream (receiving an Off West End Award Nomination for Best Company), an 80’s inspired Twelfth Night in 2022 and another Off West End Award Nomination for Best Company Ensemble for Romeo & Juliet in 2023. A festival vibe will be encouraged with gates opening an hour before the show, so bring a picnic and why not sign up for a mask-making workshop run one of our in-house-party-goers (actors) – make your own mask and be part of the masked party!
Parental Guidance – the play features kissing. The show is directed by Rosie Ward. The producers – and co-directors of the East London Shakespeare Festival – are: Ursula Early & Rosie Ward.

London Clown Festival
We’re delighted to be a venue for the acclaimed London Clown Festival for the first time. Here are six shows that are influenced by mime, circus and physical comedy. Don’t miss this eclectic mix of performers who embody the principals of this timeless art form from countries all over the world – this is clowning for the 21st century.
Pomp and Cirque-umstance No 3.1 by Ella the Great
Richard Melanin The Third is a showman. Even in his own home. He can make magic in mundanity and splendour in simplicity. But he’s been saving his greatest stunt for a rainy day…
Internationally acclaimed clown Ella The Great “lights up the stage” (Scotsman) in an inventive debut-hour of visual comedy and circus, which sheds new light on the visionary mind of one of London’s most beloved artists.
