Laurent Baffie’s hit comedy DocDoc is making its highly anticipated UK premiere in February 2025 at the Churchill Theatre Bromley and the Palace Theatre Southend. Directed by the legendary Ian Talbot, this laugh-out-loud exploration of obsessive-compulsive disorders (OCD) is sure to captivate audiences. Here are five reasons why you won’t want to miss this smash-hit production.

1. A Global Sensation Finally Comes to the UK

DocDoc (known internationally as Toc Toc) has been a worldwide phenomenon, performed in over 37 countries and enjoyed by more than 4 million people. With its relatable humour and witty take on OCD, the play has earned critical acclaim across continents. Its UK premiere marks a major milestone, giving British audiences their first chance to experience this international hit.

2. An All-Star Cast and Creative Team

The cast features top talent, including Sophie Bloor (Gay Pride and No Prejudice), Ryan Early (Coronation Street), and Gareth Brierley (The Diplomat). They are supported by a stellar creative team, with Ian Talbot (The Mousetrap) directing and Julian Quintanilla adapting Laurent Baffie’s original script for English audiences.
