Comedy / Music

Mitch Benn: Ten Songs To Save The World One broken world and ten funny songs to fix it. From BBC Radio 4’s “Now Show” to his column in the New European, the awardwinning Mitch Benn spreads insight and laughs in equal measure.

Jazz / World Music

Café Capriccio Café Capriccio is an acoustic group that celebrates the music and culture of European Café Society.

The café culture goes back centuries, when the great thinkers, poets, philosophers, artists and even the revolutionaries of France would gather in their local café to debate, share and plot.

Art and history were shaped at the tables of these cafés while musicians wandered from café to café or performed on a small stage inside. The music played is often free in form and lively, a ‘caprice’, with the occasional melancholic piece thrown in for variety.

Join the “country’s leading musical satirist” (The Times) as, with six string in hand and a head full of silly rhymes, he identifies the problems and proposes (semi-serious) solutions.

“Undoubted skill as a musician and delightfully cutting wit” One 4 Review “Well crafted, well sung, his songs are just plain funny” The Guardian

Shobana Jeyasingh Dance

Staging Schiele Colour, masterful lines and unusual perspectives: four dancers inhabit the highly charged world of the artist Egon Schiele, putting the human body on visceral display.

Fresh from the success of 2018’s Contagion (one of the year’s top ten dance works for The Guardian and Evening Standard), Shobana Jeyasingh Dance returns with Staging Schiele.

Inspired by the extraordinary work and life of the Austrian artist, famous for his unflinching nudes and searing self portraits, the piece scrutinises the eternal conundrum of the male artist and the female model.

Jeyasingh’s award-winning choreography matches the intensity of Schiele, engaging with his anxieties as well as his supreme self-confidence.

There Was An Snow White Join Vienna Festival Ballet on Old Lady Who magical journey with their Swallowed A Fly aunmissable production of

The Blues Band Many of the Blues Band’s 21st century fans weren’t even born when these five virtuosos, already music industry veterans, decided to fly in the face of musical fashion in 1979 and form a band ‘just to play the blues’.

Snow White. World premiere choreography propels this timeless fairytale and answers the question; who is the fairest one of all?

There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed A Fly. I don’t know why she swallowed a fly...

But The People’s Theatre Company do!

And now you can too as they bring one of the world’s best loved nursery rhymes to life just in time to celebrate the 45th anniversary of Pam Adams’ best selling book!

This magical show has been written especially for grown ups to enjoy with their children, so come and relive the delights of this most charming of tales complete with a feast of sing along songs, colourful animal characters and heart warming family fun.

Based on the traditional Grimm brothers’ story, this ballet incorporates all the important elements – a beautiful girl, an enchanted mirror, a poisoned apple. Hip-hopping dwarves help Snow White find her Prince Charming.

This spellbinding ballet promises to entertain and dazzle the whole family.

No one could have predicted that, 40 years on, they’d still be dazzling audiences with their showmanship and virtuosity.

About 20 albums and thousands of gigs later, they’ve earned a reputation around the world as one of the finest exponents of the blues tradition in all its forms. With this line-up, it’s hardly surprising.

The songs in the show are available to sing along to on PTC’s website at www.ptc.org.uk so why not have a listen and join in when you visit the theatre!

With songs such as Never Can Say Goodbye, On The Radio, Hot Stuff, Car Wash, Boogie Wonderland and many, many more, it’s the feel-good show of the year!

After a sell-out performance last year, Russian National Ballet returns for their annual UK tour with the premiere of the most romantic ballet in the world, Giselle.

The gravely ill peasant girl Giselle falls in love with the handsome Prince Albrecht, who has been unfaithful to her. When jealous rivals claim her fiancé, the heartbreak is too much for her to bear. Weakened by her ill health and driven mad by despair, Giselle takes her own life.

After her funeral Prince Albrecht visits her grave. The spirits of women betrayed before their wedding days return to take revenge on their philandering fiancés by dancing them to death.

Only Giselle’s powerful love saves the remorseful Albrecht from this cruel fate, proving that love can conquer all – even death.

Giselle remains one of the most celebrated classical ballets.

Bait (15)

Honeyland (Cert TBC)

A dispute between two brothers over re-purposing their fishing boat for tourist trips becomes a metaphor for gentrification and the collapse of traditional ways of life in this strikingly shot film.

Beneath the idyllic surface of a picturesque Cornish village, tensions between locals and tourists simmer in the summer sun, until a misguided prank brings things to boiling point. Director Mark Jenkin shot his film in black and white on a 1960’s clockwork Bolex 16mm camera and hand processed at home, which brings a palpable sense of history and nostalgia to some very contemporary issues.

Hatidze lives in a remote mountain village without water or electricity. The last in a long line of Macedonia Bee keepers, she harvests small amounts of honey from wild bees which she sells in the nearest market, a four mile walk away. This poignant and ravishingly beautiful documentary patiently observes a way of life that has changed little for hundreds of years, until a boisterous family move in next door and upset the dedicate equilibrium between humans and nature, threatening the survival of both Hatidze and her beloved bees.

A Midsummer Night’s Dream (12A) Shakespeare’s most famous romantic comedy, directed by Nicholas Hytner, stars Gwendoline Christie (Game of Thrones) and a host of other familiar faces as The Bridge Theatre becomes a forest – a dream world of flying fairies, contagious fogs and moonlight revels, surrounded by a roving audience following the action on foot.

Sunday 20 October 3pm (pre-recorded)

Hansard (15) It’s a summer morning in 1988 and Tory politician Robin Hesketh has returned home to the idyllic Cotswold house he shares with his wife of 30 years, Diana. But all is not as blissful as it seems. Diana has a stinking hangover, a fox is destroying the garden, and secrets are being dug up all over the place.

Thursday 21 November 7pm (pre-recorded)

Present Laughter (12A) As he prepares to embark on an overseas tour, star actor Garry Essendine’s colourful life is in danger of spiralling out of control.
