South London venue Brixton House has announced its new season for 2026.
Highlights of the new season include Roots Mbili Theatre with the London debut of Far Gone (11 – 21 February) written by and starring John Rwothomack, following tours across South Africa, the US and Taiwan.
This powerful one-man performance traces a young boy’s journey from innocence to survival.
My Uncle Is Not Pablo Escobar (7 April – 3 May) is back at Brixton House in 2026, following a sell-out 2023 season. Latinx women from South London take centre stage in the show and dare you to call them invisible, with 20% of tickets accessibly priced to encourage Latinx audiences and community engagement.
The show is written by Valentina Andrade, Elizabeth Alvarado, Lucy Wray and Tommy Ross-Williams.
Other highlights of the season include ‘00s nostalgia and the media storm of Janet Jackson’s 2004 Super Bowl halftime show with Nine Sixteenths (19 – 30 May), by acclaimed theatremaker Paula Varjack.
Brixton House’s month-long showcase Housemates Festival, championing new work, celebrates its 4th edition and is also back for 2026.
Earlier this week Brixton House won Campaign of the Year at The Stage Awards 2026 for its work on Black Power Desk.
