“This gritty, funny & moving solo show, shifts between the personal, political & epic, offering a brazen contemplation on consumption & objectification that questions where we place stigma, as we hurtle towards climate catastrophe.”
From: Cockroach by Chloe Mantripp

“The play is about the negative, insidious consequences of toxic masculinity, of not opening up / speaking your truth / dealing with the root causes of whatever mental health issue you may be facing. At the same time, the play showcases the positive, cathartic effects that opening up and owning your reality has for each and every one of us. Who will you empathize with more?”
From: “Do you want some toxic masculity with that?"

“Kerfuffle is the first development of a new circus show ‘Risk’ from Scottee & Friends Ltd that looks at the relationship between risk in circus and the queer experience. This is your first chance to have a nose at something we think will be very special.”
From: Kerfuffle by Scottee and Friends Ltd

“Live and direct at The Jam Jar, we are thrilled to present David Walters and his powerful tropical trio all the way from France. His album ‘Soleil Kréyol’ has been one of our absolute favourites of recent years, packed with vibrant bangers connecting continents and archipelago. The sounds of Africa, America, Europe and the Caribbean converse in the universal language of music, carnival and dance.”
From: David Walters

“‘Monkey’ feels like a mature, dedicated and introspective release from an artist best known for light hearted and story based music. With Hector's dedicated array of musical achievements, access to a personal and extravagant track like ‘Monkey’ feels like an intimate treat; the space in the groove is remarkable, and the word play and vocal performance are heartfelt and deadly. The stand out feeling however, was that it sits close to Hector's soul, in a way that only solo releases can. ‘Monkey’ is a short and diverse journey leaving you wanting more; more releases and more ‘Monkey’.”
From: Hector Who d + STANLÆY + Teah Lewis
