The School of Night The School of Night is a collection of hard bardics extemporisers, originally convened by the late, great Ken Campbell. In the company's theatrical shows, the rhapsodes create poetry and drama using ideas suggested by the audience, always under the stern gaze of the goader. The result is an eccentric night of literary and theatrical celebration. Upcoming shows Walpurgisnacht - Witch's Night - at The Vandella Theatre, Shepherd's Bush

On June 22nd, The School of Night will welcome actors and theatre makers from around the Globe to Sheffield, for the International Student Drama Festival. In the Crucible Theatre, groups from Germany, Australia, Zimbabwe, Georgia, Israel, Japan, Palestine, The USA and Iran - as well as England and Wales - will meet for the first time, as the School opens the Festival with a bespoke session of summoning the Muses and raising the dead. The following day some of the fraters will take part in a panel discussion as to whether directors are still necessary to today's theatre. Edmonton Improvaganza video from Oslo
