“In light of the recent proposed ban on strip clubs and sexual entertainment venues in Bristol, The Disobedient Survivors are holding a frank and open discussion around the stigmas, stereotyping and misconceptions of sex work.”
From: Discussion with Bristol Sex Workers Collective

“We are celebrating our second event in our brand new home of Zed Alley! That's right, we have set up our new home in this wonderful space and are so excited to bring you this limited seating event - only 60 tickets will be available and will be FLYING!!!! Get yours or they're GONE and you do now want to miss out.”
From: Cannonball Cabaret Vol 2

“Shakespeare's broody tragedy takes an outrageously silly turn, as six actors deploy wittily rewritten pop classics, chaotically daft comedy, and an array of highly haphazard props to recount the tale of a meglomaniac family who make the Kardashians look like Little House on the Prairie. Expect kings, Kanye, ham-acting, Hamilton, screams, Queen, and much more besides.”
From: King Lear: The Musical

“From her very first live show in 2018, to headlining the 02 Academy Bristol and being handpicked by Michael Eavis himself to play Glastonbury 2019, Chrissie Huntley had been making huge waves on the live music scene. Then, the pandemic hit.”
From: Chrissie Huntley, Amber Dee & Jack King

“Sadly we are postponing our live event with MadMadMad, Glows and Robbie and Mona and instead will be hosting an evening showcasing some up and coming Bristol talent in the form of Monoke, Lily Hu, The Milkshake Boys, Nyle Dowd and Erratic Batting.”
From: The Milkshake Boys, Monoke, Lily
