Fashion designer extraordinaire “The Emperor” is on a ruthless rise to the top, but a disappointing Winter collection has Berlin’s fashion scene questioning whether this fashionista has lost his touch. Rumours of a cutting-edge new fabric, spearheaded by an innovative Parisian duo, may be just what The Emperor needs to secure his place in fashion history…
Following a sellout run at the Bread & Roses Theatre, this tongue-in-cheek adaptation of The Emperor’s New Clothes comes to award-winning comedy venue Canal Cafe Theatre as part of the 2023 Camden Fringe. Featuring larger-than-life characters, a feel-good soundtrack and lots of silly jokes, Baby Lamb Productions bring this familiar tale of ego and deception to the 21st century… delve into the dark side of fashion and the lengths people will go to stay in the limelight!
Performers: Jacob Baird, Sasha Brooks, Nisha Emich, Kip O’Sullivan, Hannah McLeod, Janik Rajapakse

“What a joy to see a very simple and equally silly story adapted for the stage and turned into an hour of light-hearted frivolity, full of humour and ingenuity.” –★★★★

“The acting is universally superb, and these young performers show all the signs of deserving to go far in their careers […] an immensely enjoyable hour’s entertainment”- ★★★★
