Returning for a third year, Peckham Fringe are back for 2024! 

This inclusive and dynamic performing arts festival will take place at Theatre Peckham, showcasing a lineup of over 20 outstanding artists and creatives from the local London community. With groundbreaking emerging writers, moving new musicals, clowning and spoken word it’s the festival for everyone. 

This is the first time that the festival has expanded beyond the Theatre Peckham building, truly embracing the local community and surrounding spaces. 

Peckham Fringe’s programme has been co-coordinated by Theatre Peckham’s Ambassadors and strives to provide local artists with a place to pioneer their work in a safe and supportive environment. 

Their Ambassadors are made up of local artists, creatives and members of the Peckham community, ensuring the festival is truly representative and centred around the voices and stories of the community. 

The festival will showcase a high number of women writers, global majority voices and neurodiverse stories, alongside an exciting scratch night taking place at the Golden Goose pub. 

Suzann McLean MBE CEO/Artistic Director of Theatre Peckham comments, ‘Our annual Peckham Fringe festival is a testament to the power of community and creativity. Our Ambassadors have curated a lineup that showcases the diverse voices and stories of our community. I invite everyone to join us in this inclusive and dynamic celebration of the arts.’ 

Peckham Fringe’s Project Producer and Programmer Vikesh Godhwani says, ‘Peckham Fringe continues to break barriers for under-represented artists in a really difficult time for making theatre. The variety of our programme is representative of our rich cultural landscape, with work that is both formally inventive and tackles subject matter that is incredibly timely.’
