Hit off-West End comedy Cockfosters has announced casting for its return to London this December.
Cockfosters is playing at Southwark Playhouse Borough from 4 December 2025 to 3 January 2026.
This year’s cast welcomes Princess Donnough (The Wedding Speech) and Verity Bajoria (The Three Musketeers), alongside returning cast members Beth Lilly (The Play That Goes Wrong), Emily Waters (Bleak Expectations), Liam Horrigan (The Play That Goes Wrong), Sam Rees-Baylis (A Grave Situation) and Charlie Keable (Sh*tFaced Shakespeare).
Cockfosters returns to London following five sold-out runs, and is back at Southwark Playhouse Borough for its longest-ever run.
The play with music is an off-the-rails, surreal comedy about the London Underground and the joys of commuting. Strangers James and Tori meet on the Piccadilly Line at Heathrow and travel across London on a journey they’ll never forget. 1 Tube Carriage. 38 Stops. 0 Refunds.
Featuring original songs by Richard Longdon and Tom Woffenden, the show is written by Hamish Clayton and Tom Woffenden, with Clayton also directing.
The wider creative team includes set design by Gareth Rowntree, and lighting design by Ben Sayers.
Writers Hamish Clayton and Tom Woffenden said in a statement: “We’re thrilled the ride continues, as the show continues to build up a head of steam. After tube strikes threatened to ‘derail’ our run in 2024 and TFL slapped us on the wrist in 2023, we can’t imagine what train-shaped obstacle will come our way next! The show will be bigger, better and even more chaotic than ever and we can’t wait to bring it back to Southwark Playhouse – a brilliant champion for new work. The show is thriving on a bigger platform and we’re delighted that even more passengers can share in the madness. Who knows where the next stop could be?”
Cockfosters is running at Southwark Playhouse Borough in London from 4 December 2025 to 3 January 2026.
