What locals say about Lower Addiscombe
“I love Lower Addiscombe because there are wonderful "old style" local shops which give it a great community feel, even though you are only six or seven minutes from East Croydon station by tram. The shops include an independent butchers, fishmongers and greengrocers. There is also a branch of an artisan bakers as well as a better known national bakers and two very good coffee shops (the tram stop and adagio). You are very close to Ashburton Park and along Bingham Road you will find the recreation ground.”

Urinetown
Winner of three Tony Awards, three Outer Critic's Circle Awards, two Lucille Lortel Awards, and two Obie Awards,Urinetownis a hilarious musical satire of the legal system, capitalism, social irresponsibility, populism, bureaucracy, corporate mismanagement, municipal politics and musical theatre itself! Hilariously funny and touchingly honest,Urinetownprovides a fresh perspective of one of America's greatest art forms. In a Gotham-like city, a terrible water shortage, caused by a 20-year drought, has led to a government-enforced ban on private toilets. The citizens must use public amenities, regulated by a single malevolent company that profits by charging admission for one of humanity's most basic needs. Amid the people, a hero decides he's had enough, and plans a revolution to lead them all to freedom! Inspired by the works of Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill, Urinetown is an irreverently humorous satire in which no one is safe from scrutiny. Praised for reinvigorating the very notion of what a musical could be, Urinetown catapults the "comedic romp" into the new millennium with its outrageous perspective, wickedly modern wit, and sustained ability to produce gales of unbridled laughter.Read more
