THREE SHOWS LEFT! 💥 Are you in London and free tonight?
📣 Come and join us for a cathartic evening of absurd wit and laughter TONIGHT. Just keep an eye out…in case Charlie shows up.
These two satirical plays from the soviet era (in English translation) are absurdly relevant to today’s political climate of Trumps America, the rise of authoritarianism and the impact of mass surveillance.

This lovely review today. Available to read at: /2026/04/29/review-charlie-and-striptease-golden-goose-theatre-london/ #theatre #whatsonlondon #plays #absurd
Lovely review from LONDON FRINGE THEATRE REVIEW. “Directed by Orsolya Nagy, the production features strong performances from Rowland D. Hill and Simon Brandon, with Kenneth Michaels providing standout comedic relief in Charlie. While Charlie offers a biting critique of power, Striptease is the evening’s highlight-a Kafkaesque masterpiece where two likable businessmen are systematically stripped of their dignity by an unseen authority, a mysterious hand.”
Really enjoyable and thought-provoking evening at The Golden Goose Theatre @goldengoosetheatre watching two 1960’s absurdist plays from a Polish playwright (Slawomir Mrozek) living uner the Soviet system.
Niche, perhaps, but highly entertaining and still highly relevant dissections of the nature of power and subservience, and how it could be very easy to lose oneself within a power system, whatever your initial ethical starting point. Well done to the whole cast and director - discussed the ins and outs of this for a couple of hours afterwrds!
Cast: Rowland D Hill @rowlandd.hill2 Simon Brandon @brandon_actor & Kenneth Michaels

It’s arrived! This early 20th century proscenium arch model kit, with a Shakespeare twist. Excited to put the final piece of the jigsaw in place for what Keith and I started working on in January. #athroneofshadows shakespeare #shakespearesbirthday #williamshakespeare #puppettheatre

We were forced to remove our trousers and run across the University of Greenwich campus...
...all in the name of theatre (and maybe questionable marketing decisions).
That same chaotic energy is exactly what you’ll get in our double-bill: Charlie and Striptease.
📍Now playing for 3 weeks at the Golden Goose Theatre in Camberwell.
If you like your comedy bold, political, and a little unhinged, we’d love to see you there!
📣 Grab your ticket today on the @goldengoosetheatre website.
