Discover the unlikely tale behind London’s most influential fringe theatre: the King’s Head.
In 1969, Dan Crawford arrived from America and saw potential in a derelict pub with a back room once used for cockfights and illegal boxing. With a small loan from his mother and sheer determination, he transformed it into England's first new pub theater in 400 years. This documentary explores how his shoestring venture grew into a creative powerhouse.
Within its peeling walls, future stars like Hugh Grant and Steven Berkoff took their first steps, Tom Stoppard shaped his voice, and radical new writing challenged theatrical conventions. The King's Head became London's most unexpected talent factory, launching productions that would conquer both West End and Broadway stages.
