A comic tale of star-crossed love and micro-nation building
TKHP follows Henrio, a man of possibly American origins whose checkered past has seen him graduate from homelessness via prison and the Timpsons in Hammersmith Broadway, to self-ordained King of his own micro-nation. His plans for nationhood are deranged and disconcertingly goodnatured. He’s a man who has nothing to lose and everything to gain. That is, until local Community Support Officer Mandy starts to take issue with his socially irresponsible, treasonous behaviour, and Henrio finds himself - against his every instinct- smitten.

Riot Run Productions Presents
25th-28th November
Set within the suffocating walls of a failing London bookshop, Dust is a sharp psychological drama that tracks fractured relationships and a malleable past. Over the course of one rain-soaked evening, the characters grapple with the economic and emotional toll of keeping the past alive. Their memories begin to conflict, exposing deep-seated betrayals and unhealed wounds.
Directed by Isis Clunie (Young and Foolish (short film) - director; Every Time I See a Yellow Car (short film) - choreographer; The Shivers (Polka Theatre, New Diorama) - performer) and written by Oliver Judd as his debut play, this moving production is about books, friendship, loneliness, stagnation and rot. Moving fluidly between the past and the present, Dust asks what remains when truth becomes subjective, relationships are interrogated, and the dust finally begins to settle.
