A tube carriage to Cockfosters crashes through a white tiled background

Back due to popular demand!

1 Tube Carriage. 38 Stops. 0 Refunds.

After five sell-out runs, London’s ★★★★★ “screamingly funny” (The Prickle) smash-hit comedy COCKFOSTERS returns to Southwark Playhouse Borough.

Strangers James and Tori meet at Heathrow and take the Piccadilly Line across London on a journey they’ll never forget. Perfectly capturing our love-hate relationship with the tube, COCKFOSTERS is a brilliantly off-the-rails comedy that will change your commute forever.

So top up your Oyster, mind the gap and hop aboard the tube journey of a lifetime!

Please note that ticket prices may change due to demand and we recommend early booking.


A hit with critics and audiences alike, COCKFOSTERS has a customer-satisfaction rate that TfL could only dream of…

“A laugh-out-loud riot” Broadway World
“Inspired brilliance” The Stage
“A stroke of genius” All That Dazzles
