Dr Friday's - Behind The Prison Gates

17th September 2026

Tom Thumb Theatre

Here’s your chance to find out how serial killers cope with capture, and what it's like on death row at the Tom Thumb Theatre in Margate

7.30pm - 9pm (bar open from 6pm)

After years of running the Forensic Psychology course for the Criminology Department at the University of Greenwich, where he’s lectured for over a decade on subjects such as the psychology of serial killers, jury decision making, and how criminals adapt to prison life - Dr Ross Friday is now bringing these fascinating subjects to new audiences.

Learn how some serial killers cope with being kept behind bars, and how criminals have their own sense of justice in this 5-star rated show, which always sells out. It's been described as “hugely entertaining, deliciously dark, and endlessly fascinating”, and “expertly delivered with respect and pitch-black humour” as it offers you the opportunity to…

• See live on-stage demonstrations.
• Discover whether you have the personality type to endure incarceration.
• Learn about psychologically testing prisoners.
• Be part of the debate on whether serial killers can ever be understood.
• Witness previously unreleased crime scene photos.
• Understand serial killer psychology.

This show is intended for interested members of the public, but is not recommended for audience members with a nervous disposition or anyone under 15 years of age.
