Join KAREN at the West End’s The Other Palace theatre for a limited run in Spring 2025.
KAREN invites you into the uproarious world of our Protagonist. Seamlessly breaking the fourth wall, she’ll whisk you through a chaos-filled narrative that has been described as Fleabag meets The Office with Cameron-West acting described as “the female Peep Show” (The Nerd Party).

We open on Protagonist’s 30th birthday at Alton Towers, where her life takes an unexpected turn. Mid-calippo, she’s unceremoniously dumped by her long-term boyfriend, Joe. Little does she know, this is just the beginning. Protagonist must soon navigate through office hell as Joe starts dating her arch-nemesis: Karen. This creates a perfect storm of heartbreak, societal pressures, and an identity crisis that threatens to engulf our heroine.
The final straw unleashes in an explosive office showdown, where the suppression of her emotions can no longer be contained and Protagonist finally finds her voice. Through laughter, tears, and a healthy dose of sarcasm, Protagonist learns the invaluable lesson that the path to healing lies in moving through the pain, not around it, and in the empowerment of owning one’s emotions that allows you to find peace.
Tickets available for performances from Tuesday 18th March – Sunday 23rd March 2025
1 hour.
