Eat the Rich (but maybe not me mates x)

After smash-hit, 5★ sell-out runs at Edinburgh and Soho, Eat The Rich transfers to our main house this June. A hilarious, politically sharp story of a working-class Scouser navigating Cambridge University, hiding her cleaning job, and exposing privilege with wit and charm.Inspired by Franks’s own time as a working-class student at Cambridge, the show follows Jade, a Scouse fresher juggling secret cleaning shifts with the culture shock of Oxbridge privilege. With razor-sharp wit and a dozen unforgettable characters, Eat the Rich exposes the absurdities of class, money and belonging in Britain today.Listed in The New York Times among the ‘Buzziest Acts of the Fringe’ and in The Telegraph’s Top Plays to See, Eat the Rich has cemented Jade Franks as one of the UK’s most exciting new voices.Scotsman Fringe First Award 2025 Winner
