The Mount Without

Warp beloveds Bullyache burst through cultural homogeneity to deliver you a maximalist theatre spectacle like no other! Imagine Paul Verhoeven’s Showgirls meets boxing champion Jake LaMotta meets Kenneth MacMillan’s 1974 ballet Manon – Who Hurt You? is spiralling, sweat-n-glitter meltdown of futile fame and fading glory via bold choreography and unhinged drag diva antics. Blending hyper-theatre and pop culture with a stark, sculptural approach to dance, BULLYACHE conjures a maximalist vision teetering on the edge of chaos and collapse.

Bodies in motion through grief and ecstatic release: renowned New York City Ballet choreographer Antonia Franceschi presents two world-class dance-theatre works, including a charged duet performed by Impermanence’s Roseanna Anderson & Josh Ben-Tovim + a solo piece from Olivier-winning national treasure Edward Watson MBE (Mon & Tues only). Another home-run for contemporary movement fans in the celestial Mount Without! A night of spectacular dance and theatre from the award winning Artistic Director of New York Theatre Ballet, Antonia Franceschi & writer/director Sara Joyce

A whirlwind of cathartic clownery from multi-disciplinary artists Jo Fong and George Orange. The Rest of Our Lives combines musings on middle-age and mutual care with messy audience participation, in a two-person dance-theatre piece full of silliness and surprising tenderness. Genuinely life-affirming stuff! A joyful dose of dance, theatre, circus and games. Created and performed by Jo Fong and George Orange

Sell out warning! Riot Act have really outdone themselves here, striking a big nugget of UK comedy gold with the ever-irreverent, ever-inebriated icon Dylan Moran. Mr Bernard Black’ll have you crawling out The Mount Without in stitches, plus there’s more surreal hijinx from boardroom vaudeville mime Enrico Touché and 'Poet Laureate of the Afters' herself Eliza Fiver. RIOT ACT- Bristol's madcap cabaret clubnight- presents the very best in comedy, cabaret, punk poetry and Bristol sounds powered by the people, for the people.

Sell out warning! Real deal Irish folk exactly as you’d want it: full of charm, honesty, intricate trad musicianship and tales of the Emerald Isles. Bristol can't get enough of Daoirí – he's truly an artist that demands your repeated attendance. ‘He has the best Irish traditional voice currently around; if there’s better, I’ve yet to hear it.’ - Folk Radio UK/KLOF
