About the Show

The Pump House Gallery in Battersea Park hosts theatre company People Show for a week of fantastical performances. Ghosts are about and some have dogs. Magical water features created by human fountains. The Pump House itself transformed to present living local stories from its 150 years history. Book early for a magical unique theatrical event.

People Show 122: THE PUMP HOUSE PROJECT is devised by Roehampton and ALRA students with the Poeple Show, with imput from local residents. It is developed in partnership with Wandsworth Arts Team and is funded by Arts Council England.

People Show 122: The Pump House Project is the 122nd production since the formation of People Show in 1966. The company has performed all over the world in streets, fields, night clubs, telephone boxes, toilets, parks, trains, glasshouses and even in theatres.
People Show is a collaborative art form. Each show is the unique sum of the imaginations of the people involved in the creation of it. The non-autocratic ethos is as relevant today as it was in the beginning.
