St Albans playwright Mial Pagan is debuting his new play Thin Places at Camden Fringe this month.

The play is described as an "intimate, darkly comedic" drama set in a village in Northern Ireland, exploring themes of exile and the poignant, and sometimes difficult, return to our roots.

A cast of Hertfordshire actors will perform the play at Islington's Little Angel Theatre at 8.30pm on Thursday, August 22, Friday, August 23 and Saturday, August 24.

Mial, who has been nominated for the Bruntwood Prize for Playwriting - the biggest playwriting prize in Europe - also had his previous play National Trust staged at Camden Fringe in 2021.

A review for National Trust stated: "Theatrically original and vibrant, National Trust is a gripping play that is hugely topical to today’s political systems and to contemporary issues.

"The drama blends capital P Politics with lower case personal politics with confidence and ease."

Mial is also a member of the Company of Ten at the Abbey Theatre in St Albans.

The Camden Fringe runs until Sunday, August 25.
