Charlotte Pegram review KINGS at Vault Festival After being bowled over by Happy Dave in Edinburgh this summer I was looking forward to seeing what Smoke and Oakum Theatre had to offer next.

Abigail Bryant reviews Labels at Vault Festival Running from the 1st – 5th March, Joe Sellman-Leava brings this one man show to the Vaults festival, chronicling his mixed race heritage and upbringing to explore the problematic nature of how we label ourselves and each other.

Abigail Bryant reviews This Must Be The Place at Vault Festival Poleroid Theatre’s This Must Be The Place insists from the outset that it ‘is not a London story.’ Despite taking place underneath the beating and rattling heart of the Capital in Waterloo’s Vaults it certainly delivers on […]
