Scatterjam Theatre's WHEN IT HAPPENS Returns To Tristan Bates Theatre

After a sensational debut run at the Maiden Speech festival in November 2018, Rachel Causer's When It Happens returns to Tristan Bates Theatre as part of the Camden Fringe.

Brought to you by an all-female cast and creative team, When It Happens is a surreal and outrageous comedy about micro-aggressions and personal revolutions.

'This was an awakening. This was an eruption. This was a revolution. This was like eating three Berocca with no water and letting them bubble inside you.'

When It Happens follows the lives of three women on what they thought would be a normal day of micro-aggressions and self-doubt. Then it happens... At 2.16pm, a strange phenomenon occurs and each woman experiences a transformation, breaking free from the roles they've been forced to play and starting a hilarious and heart-wrenching rebellion against everything and everyone who put them there in the first place.
