Camden People's Theatre annual festival of new theatre starts on 7 March.

Presenting completed and work-in-progress pieces from emerging and established artists, the subjects range from sci-fi to pornography using disciplines from poetry to clowning.

Highlights from recognised artists include the UK première from Scottee on working class masculinity Bravado and Jamie Wood's new show I Am A Tree.

From emerging artists, highlights include Nathan Birkinshaw’s coming of age story How I lost the will to live (& why you should too), LaPelle’s Factory’s Edgar Allen Poe adaptation The Black Cat and Vijay Patel’s autobiographical work Pull the Trigger.

The Starting Blocks Showcase presents new work developed through Camden People's Theatre’s artist support scheme and this year features Christina Hardinge, Embolon Theatre, Haley McGee, Hannah Maxwell, Double Trouble and Ryan Calais Cameron.
