Steve Ashley

Steve Ashley is one of British folk’s finest singer-songwriters. His songs have been covered by Fairport Convention, Ralph McTell & Wizz Jones, Show of Hands, Martin Simpson and many others.

His award-winning debut album, Stroll On (1974) is a folk-rock classic and he’s since released 12 critically acclaimed albums of original songs. If you like songs that are edgy, challenging and compassionate - and sometimes very funny - then don’t miss this performance.

We’ll Let You Know

After a lengthy period out of the business, veteran actor Bobby Roberts has been invited to an audition.

Auditions can be tricky at the best of times and this is made no easier when Bobby is plunged into the brave new world of immersive and participative theatre. Will he sink or will he swim?

Find out as Dreamshed Theatre presents ‘We’ll let you Know’ - a humorous look at the actor’s lot.

Cecil Beaton’s Diaries

For the first time ever, the diaries of photographer and stylist Sir Cecil Beaton are dramatised for the stage, to accompany his most iconic and lesser-seen photographs and designs.

Beaton’s photographs showed his versatility; his diaries exposed the cost. Even his triumphant designs for My Fair Lady never stopped his doubts. And his passion for Greta Garbo found fulfilment only in his writing.

Blisteringly funny and at times deeply moving, with appearances ranging from the Queen Mother and Elizabeth Taylor to Churchill and Capote, the diaries paint a self-portrait of the 20th century’s most compelling dandy.

The diaries are adapted and performed by Richard Stirling, whose recent credits as an actor include appearances in Bridgerton and The Man who Fell to Earth.
