Are You There Mother? (Camden Fringe Festival)

  • 265 Camden High Street London, England, NW1 7BU United Kingdom (map)

A struggling actor is caught up in a plot to help a woman grieving her mother, by posing as a psychic medium. What begins as a matter of goodwill quickly turns into a deeply troubled and darkly hilarious role play that continues for far longer than anybody expected.

Following a sold out Northern performance at the acclaimed Lawrence Batley Theatre and a successful London debut at The Hen and Chickens Theatre; Righton Productions and Thomas Carruthers (Longlisted for the 2023 Victoria Woody Comedy Prize) bring this new and original northern dark comedy one man show for its Fringe debut for Camden Fringe 2026.

"Alan Bennett meets David Lynch... A hilarious, uplifting and moving piece of theatre." - PHILLIP STOKES, Winner of Fringe Review Outstanding Theatre Award and Culturally Important Playwright

"4 STARS - A shockingly funny dark comedy... Carruthers constructs a compelling narrative. There is something timeless about his crosshatch of psychological thrillers." -JAMIAS VU PRODUCTIONS
