Fringe 2022: The Ofsted Massacre

THE OFSTED MASSACRE

Fawlty Towers meets Bad Education in this modern farce by Phil Porter

It’s Monday morning at a sleepy further education college in Sussex. The caretakers unlock the building, and a Drama teacher is rehearsing Romeo and Juliet.

Just as a group of careerworn teachers are about to begin period one, the call comes through to the principal and Ofsted arrive! Cue hilarity, romance and a little murder.

This is KGS Theatre Company’s fourth outing to the fringe following their hits Female Transport, 2015, Joseph K, 2017, and Rattigan’s Nijinsky 2019 .

First performed as a LAMDA showcase, this is a national premiere of Ofsted Massacre.

KGS Theatre company are the keen Sixth Form Drama students from Kingston Grammar School. Directed and produced by the Drama and English departments.
