Current Line-Up: (with more to be announced)

Jason and the Adventure of 254 in Gallery 1 – Reimagining the gallery space as a hospital ward, Wilsher-Mills’ immersive installation of sculptures, illustrations and interactive dioramas challenges the cultural and societal perceptions surrounding disability, medicine and the human body.

DJ Sets by Shindig DJs – In the mid-2010s, Chris was tired of hearing the usual rubbish music at parties and in bars and pubs. So, he did something about it: he bought some decks, raided his record collection and begged venues to book him. To his surprise, they did. And people kept coming up to him, saying they’d not heard that tune for years/OMG a Stone Roses b-side/why aren’t you playing Mr Brightside? Records only.

Show by Lindsey Warnes: ‘Lido – A Love Story’ – Take a deep dive into the wonderful world of lidos in this 20 minute work in progress excerpt from a new theatre show written and performed by award-winning comedian Lindsey Warnes. The show celebrates the people, communities and history that make lidos special.

Show by Natalie Bellingham: ‘Marie Chou-Fleur’ – Marie is a sexy, stupid, hopeful dollop of absurd wisdom. A playful celebration of humanity, stupidity and being unapologetically ourselves. Natalie Bellingham is a theatre-maker, performer and physical comedian, making bold, tender work that sits somewhere between clowning, storytelling and theatre.

Show by Anthony Ekundayo Lennon: ‘Sweet Memories’ – Before memory had language, before the world had names for things, there was a game: ‘Hide N’ Quiet’. Sweet Memories is one aspect of the development of MISTAKEN IDENTITY, Anthony’s autobiographical play in collaboration with rising playwright Alfie Neill (SLUMLORD).

Recommended Price: £2

What are ‘Pay What You Can’ tickets?

We believe that that arts should be accessible for all. For this reason some of our shows and events this year will be ‘Pay What You Can’, meaning that you decide how much you can or want to pay. This expands access to the arts for those who may not have been able to participate otherwise, or gives others the chance to support those who cannot by paying a bit extra.

You will see multiple prices available for each show or event. You can select whichever price you can afford or would like to pay – thank you.
