COLLOQUIUM Comes to The Culture Palace and The Etcetera Theatre

Katherine Stockton's play Colloquium is coming to The Culture Palace and The Etcetera Theatre this November.

Oxbridge. The promise land of knowledge and legacy. Several students stand at the threshold of greatness, to determine whether they are worthy.

The best universities in the world. The pinnacle of education.

What stands before them is a simple question...

"Snog, marry, avoid: the Father, the Son, or the Holy Spirit?"

Colloquium is a hilarious and moving new drama that satirises the exclusivity and absurdity of knowledge and tradition. Explore the lives of stuffy Professors, pompous candidates, and struggling students, all suffering under the regime of pressuring higher education.

Following a sold-out run at the Bread & Roses Theatre and a popular run at the Hen & Chickens as part of the Camden Fringe, Colloquium returns to London theatre venues.
