“Jenna the pub landlady will be hosting her awfully bad bingo over cheesy but excellent tunes with equally crap prizes to win too! Come down with a team of your best bingo buddies and if we can make space somewhere in the pub we will finish off the night with Bear Beer Pong!”
From: Beer Fest Party with Electric Bear & Sleazy Bingo

“Sex sells. What sells even more? Insecurity. Multi-billion dollar industries saturate our lives with images of unattainable beauty, exporting body hatred from New York to Beirut to Tokyo. Their target? Women, and increasingly men and children. The Illusionists turns the mirror on media, exposing the absurd, sometimes humorous, and shocking images that seek to enslave us.”

“Jack is nineteen and works at a hotel. In the aftermath of grief, he is surrounded by a suffering mother who can’t acknowledge what has happened, and friends who don’t know how to. Jack is struggling to make sense of this unexpected change, unable to communicate how he feels in fear that he will “make it real.””
From: Shroud

“In The Dark is celebrating 5 sweet years of communal lights out listening across Bristol. Over the years we’ve welcomed you to some of Bristol’s most iconic venues. Now to mark our birthday, we’re having a party in one of the city’s most exciting.”
From: In The Dark Bristol is 5
