20th – 24th July

Wednesday – Saturday 7.30pm
Sunday 4pm

Remedial Remedies looks at how the youth of today are pressured, how the stress of exams and succeeding can affect their overall performance and social life. We follow the story of Bruce, Jack, Kevin and Ben, four students who have failed their English GCSE. It’s the run up to the resit of the exam and they have been placed into a special revision session with a support teacher Mr Winterdon. Each boy deals with the week differently, we see the effects of ADHD and discover more about their relationship with Winterdon, each other and their school, seeing how each boy has a different outlook on the exams and their future life. As the pressure starts to pile on we watch as the cracks begin to appear and see a hopeless Mr Winterdon trying to pave the way to greatness.

PART OF THE CAMDEN FRINGE FESTIVAL 2016

Presented by Dystopian Owls

This satirical comedy explores the absurdity between what management say and how they behave.

Set in a Further Education college, this team respond to government budget cuts and an appalling Ofsted inspection by self-serving self-preservation and fraud. The play tracks the new man, Nigel, from his first day. What follows is a darkly comic series of events. His enthusiasm genuinely to put students at the heart of everything will surely make a difference, won’t it?
