“A hanging, a hanging, gather round for a Hanging!' is the opening lines of this immersive family comedy theatre show, set in 1726. Think Horrible Histories or Blackadder. Exploring the legends of 18th-century highway robbers, potatoes and inequality. Audiences become jurors, re-enact crimes, and debate verdicts. Blending history with farce. Social commentary and true immersion for the audience. It invites reflection on today's inequalilty—asking is it right? Is it just? To steal from the ultra rich to feed the poor. Funded by Arts Council England with integrated audio description”

“And if you know where to look, they still do. In Craftland, James Fox seeks out Britain’s last great craftspeople – those who are keeping our vanishing trades and traditions alive. Through them, we witness not only the living past but a deeper, more connected way of living today: one that is not yet lost and might still shape our future.”

“One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This is an urgent and necessary reckoning about what it means to live in the West today. As an immigrant, Omar El Akkad believed the West offered freedom and justice for all. Over the past twenty years he reported on the various Wars on Terror, Ferguson, climate change, Black Lives Matter protests, and more. He won awards for his journalism and his fiction. But now, watching the unmitigated slaughter in Gaza, he comes to the conclusion that much of what the West promises is a lie.”
