Meet Martin, the creep lurking in the shadows. Familiar yet alien, "harmless" but predatory, comical but unsettling – he refuses to avert his gaze or listen to what you want. His fingers are all thumbs and he eats processed meat out of the packet, endlessly. Drawing on the retro aesthetic of an era he should have been confined to, we travel through a modern world of cursed images, AI porn and dick pics to playfully explore the grey area in which he flourishes. Because Martin exists in all areas and walks of life, and he isn’t going away.

About the show

Mr Creep is a theatre show by Theodora van der Beek, presented via PBH's Free Fringe at the Cinema Room. The show follows Martin, a creep lurking in the shadows — familiar yet alien, comical but deeply unsettling. Drawing on a retro aesthetic, the piece travels through a modern world of cursed images and other disquieting territory, exploring the grey area where Martin flourishes. The 60-minute show is rated 18+ and includes nudity and potentially distressing themes.

Why see this show?

A genuinely unsettling character study that uses dark comedy and clown to examine the kind of predatory behaviour that hides in plain sight. Free to attend, and far more thought-provoking than its title suggests.
