‘Pauvre Homme’ – Immersive theatre, total unpredictability with Les Gueules de Bois

‘Pauvre Homme’  is a powerful and immersive theatrical experience, performed in French on Friday 2 May at 7:30pm in the heart of London.

As the long-awaited premiere is about to begin, disaster strikes: all the actors are suddenly ill, unable to take the stage. Cancellation seems inevitable… Yet in the shadows, a few determined souls refuse to let the curtain fall. Amid the chaos, the audience becomes complicit, caught in a whirlwind where the theatre trembles but does not collapse.

Directed by Candice Desmet and brought to life by the daring troupe Les Gueules de Bois, this bold creation invites you to experience theatre differently – up close, unpredictable, and not just on stage. A night where anything can happen, an immersive journey into the fragile magic of live performance.

Enrolment now open!

Book your ticket for the third term now in just a few clicks!

Save Waterloo Paradise

Old Paradise Yard and the adjacent park need your help!

Act’in Theatre was born in Old Paradise Yard nearly 9 years ago. Since the end of January 2024, Act’in has been ‘invited’ to leave, our company and around thirty others because we have created Save Waterloo Paradise, a campaign that defends the right to protect this creative and natural place.

Even if we’re no longer based in this little oasis, an incredible place of creation and natural habitat for many species… we must protect it for our future generations.

Help us save Waterloo Paradise by signing the petition and sharing it with others! Together, we can make a difference!

Act'in workshops:

Act’in Theatre has been offering workshops for all levels since 2015!

So there’s no excuse not to “DARE” a new discipline! Small groups in a warm and relaxed environment: we play, we learn and, above all, we develop at our own pace in a friendly atmosphere!

So … GO! 🙂
