  • A young man with wet hair is standing against a tiled wall, wearing a blue shirt. He is yelling passionately, with water dripping from his mouth.

    LASH

    A pulsating new play about going out out! From critically acclaimed writer Philip Stokes, LASH is a booze-fuelled adrenaline rush that takes you on a wild night out which explores what life is REALLY like for the youth of today.

  • A playful, vibrant image featuring three black-and-white portraits of the same man with different expressions. One portrait is centered at the bottom, facing forward with a neutral expression. The other two portraits are rotated, one upside-down on the left with a serious expression and one tilted on the right with a smiling face. The background is purple with colourful illustrated flowers.

    Tones: A Hip Hop Opera

  • Devilled Eggs

    Acclaimed theatre makers Black Liver invite you for a one night stay at the Dakota Guest House, the most glamorous B&B this side of Blackpool! Expect songs, sketches and verse from this part music duo, part comedy double-act as they introduce you to the resident guests of the Dakato.
