“Inconsolable in grief having lost their charismatic leader, and with their faith put to the ultimate test, one among the apostles convinces his companions that the depth of their loss is the most profound good news that ever passed the lips of man. To redeem a world-view now shattered by such a cataclysmic loss, they must share the news of His life and death with the rest of humanity. Such is the conviction that director Tom Morris (War Horse) conveys to our latest collaboration with The English Concert in bringing Handel's Messiah to life on stage.”

“The festival favourite is back! Eight tellers put their best foot forward to try to win the audience vote. Hosted by Storyfest founder Martin Maudsley - expect thrills and spills. Expect laughter and tears. Expect your vote to be courted by every one of our performers!”

“Described as “no wave”, “not jazz”, “not rock” and “absolutely not”, they may refuse to be pinned-down to a genre, but an Evil Usses gig is nerve block for your mind pain. Featuring harmonious double-team manoeuvres, mat-based discordant grappling and noise-out aerial interplay, they will surely defeat your legion of doom.”

“The money raised from this event will go to creating sensory backpacks for autistic children and children with SPD to use when visiting museums. These packs will contain ear defenders, sunglasses, fiddle toys and other items to help make a museum visit more accessible.”

“Although only a mere 20 years old, classically trained Kerensa has already become a fixture within the South West’s indie music circuit, performing to awestruck crowds in local venues and summer festivals. She has already gathered quite the fan base, released barely a year ago Aura, the lead single to her up coming album has racked up nearly 15,000 plays on SoundCloud and counting.”
