“Written in the late 14th century, Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales is the high-water mark of medieval English literature. Based around a group of pilgrims travelling to the shrine of Thomas à Becket at Canterbury telling each other stories, it paints a rich and vibrant portrait of life in medieval England. From the dark and brooding Pardoner’s Tale to the bawdy Miller’s Tale, the proto-feminism of the Wife of Bath’s Tale and the simple whimsy of the Nun’s Priest’s Tale, this 600 year old work still feels contemporary, fresh and vital – and wholly accessible to modern audiences.”

“Bombshells consists of six monologues made famous by Caroline O'Connor, exposing women balancing their inner and outer lives with humour and often desperate cunning. The scripts are brilliant, funny and perceptive, the characters range in age from a feisty teenager to a 64-year-old widow yearning for the unexpected.”

“Hailing from the Northside, Dublin five-piece MELTS have fast emerged as a force to be reckoned with in the city’s era-defining scene. Brimming with hooks and searing intent, their forward-pushing brand of rock n’ roll weds elements of psychedelia and Krautrock to deliver a sound all of their own.”

“18+ event. YAANG had a productive lockdown. There was the addition of a third member: Ben White (formerly of Working Men's Club); the release of their track Security Dave, which included a remix version by London-based trio, PVA; their inclusion on four compilation releases - Slow Dance '20, Group Therapy Vol.2, The Big Plan and M1 - and (once we emerged back to normality), a support slot alongside Porij for their sold-out show at Salford's iconic The White Hotel venue; and their first ventures outside of their native Manchester, with various headline dates at The Social, The Old Blue Last, and Dream Bags Jaguar Shoes in London.”
