Karl's Imposter writes for theatre predominantly but also dabble in film, fiction and... whatever else takes our fancy.  We're a bit mental like that.

“An energetic, committed and spirited approach … this could really make us think about our place in society and how we behave” Jonathan Salisbury – Director, Trinity Theatre

Ok we got bored of being a charity that had to aim to educate.  The writer got a proper job and now he really doesn't give a shit - anything goes.  Be prepared for tales of East London living, West End partying and lots of things you wouldn't want to taint innocent people with.  Or maybe you would...  Sex, drugs, video games and going nuts in every sense of the word.  These are the kind of things to be found in our world.  Not your world?  Then go home and cry to mother dearest.

"Interesting, ambitious and innately theatrical" Theatre 503

You will find links to us from theatre forums, magazines, myspace, gamesites, blogs-  we've got links with all kinds of people, within a massive network.  We still don't have quite the right connections though, and will be going straight to prison if they catch us on film snorting coke. 

"Had me howling with laughter- thought that the comic timing was spot on"

"Great verve and flashes of brilliance" Samantha Smith - Transition Tradition

We are tired with theatre, in the conventional sense.  We strive to break the boundaries that have trapped performance on the stage and trapped the audience in their seats, suspending belief and thought.  We believe in improvisation and interaction.  We look to create works that inspire, that challenge preconceptions, that create discussion; yet all the while entertain.  That means we'll set fire to each other and gargle sperm if it'll make you listen to something we fancy telling you.

"Rich and complex emotional lives" Hampstead Theatre

We aim to create works that reflect the anxieties of our generation. We want to create discourse that turns around the way people think. We believe people have been left to struggle on their own, to believe that they must struggle on their own, made to be afraid, to be apathetic, to ask questions why. It's not a call to revolution, it's a call to awareness.   Yap yap yap... give me the hammer, might be more effective.  Watch out now!

"Unpleasant and involving" Soho Theatre

Thinking outside the box is only so good as long as you're not inside another. 

“We were impressed by the stylistic inventiveness and the thematic ambition” Soho Theatre

"A lot of stuff hit home" Audience member (after being slapped)

Umm yeah, we won't make a profit as we're not guaranteeing happy endings or making any sense whatsoever.  But... if we made you think, made you smile, made you happy in any way, make a donation so we can do it again!
