The Bridge Theatre will present two performances of Fake News on 17 & 18 September 2021, written and performed by Osman Baig and directed by Oliver Stephens. 

A sell-out show at the 2019 Edinburgh Fringe, Fake News is the story of our time from journalist-turned-actor and playwright Osman Baig. 

A budding young journalist lands a dream internship at the country’s biggest online news organization. There, he stumbles on an earth-shattering story and – against better judgement – decides to click publish. There’s just one problem: the story is completely untrue. Whatever you think about the news or those who make it, prepare to think again – in this one-man show that will force you to ask if there really is such a thing as bad publicity.

Fake News is Baig’s first play, which premiered at the King's Head Theatre in 2018 before transferring to venues including Theatre 503, Tara Arts & Waterloo East Theatre and the 2019 Edinburgh Fringe.
