Amongst the offerings at Camden People’s Theatre in the forthcoming season are Calm Down, Dear: A Festival of Feminism and a site-specific performance from Dirty Market Theatre at Hoxton's the old print works, Oxbow Lakes.

Other work includes The Incurable Imagination of Anthony Jones from Bread and Goose, solo shows Styles Saturn Returns by Rhyannon Stles and Amy Draper and A Cure for Ageing by Ira Brand, and The Collective Project's The Pensive Federation.

Works in development will be showcased in a CPT scratch double-bill.

Co-Artistic Director Brian Logan said: “In the run up to our twentieth birthday in 2014, CPT is exploring what it means to be a ‘people’s theatre’. And so our new season directly addresses matters of immediate public concern.

"We’ve got an all-new festival exploring feminism today—why is it resurgent, and where is it leading? We’ve got the London première of Our Glass House, an extraordinarily powerful site-specific performance-installation about domestic violence, which sold out completely, not only on the Edinburgh Fringe, but in Bristol and Bradford before that.

"These events—and the others in our autumn programme—showcase not only some of the liveliest and most cutting-edge work in British theatre, but also the most socially engaged. These artists want to entertain you—but they also want to change the world.”
