The Canting Crew are thrilled to present the professional premiere of Spincycle written in 2003.

Our previous shows include the English language premiere of 'Comedy - A Tragedy in One Act' by
Nikos Kazantzakis, which was performed at Sadler's Wells in 2014.
Stephen Oswald, Artistic Director of the Canting Crew has been acting, writing, directing and evolving theatre and physical performance pieces for over 25 years. His work has gained critical praise, a nomination for an Edinburgh Fringe First and New Scottish Writing Awards.
We are delighted to be working with TheatreN16, a new and unique venue, in Balham. TheatreN16 make it affordable for new and ambitious theatre companies, such as the Canting Crew to produce new work, whilst creating an artistic hub within its South London community.
