SUMMARY:Portobello Film Festival 2026
DESCRIPTION:For more than three decades Portobello Film Festival has been celebrating independent film making and festival culture at the original epicentre of the British Underground. Free to enter and free to attend\, the festival is an annual reminder of a time when Ladbroke Grove was to London what San Francisco was to America. \nOne of this year’s highlights is a feature on Laura Del-Rivo\, Britain’s first female beatnik author whose debut novel provided the inspiration for Michael Winner’s West 11. Supplementing her income by trading on Portobello Road Market while continuing to write about the changing life of the neighbourhood\, she was affectionately known as “The Tights Lady”. \nA curated evening on 17 September is dedicated to Pink Floyd and to collective art-making. Original shorts from the late 60s are shown alongside a newly released documentary on The Exploding Galaxy\, a group of artists\, musicians\, poets and dancers with a shared creative spirit. \nOne Foot in the Grove revived the spirit of psychedelia\, punk and 80s graffiti with a spectacular display of murals\, giant sculptures and fire-breathing robots under the Westway in 2009. While most traces have long since disappeared\, a ceramic mural by Carrie Reichardt and the Treatment Rooms Collective remains as a permanent reminder. Members of the collective return with a group show at The Muse to run alongside Portobello Film Festival. The exhibition opening party on 10 September is accompanied by a screening of Vive Le Punk\, Danny Garcia’s documentary marking 50 years of punk by following four bands still active today. \nThe opening night at The Gate Picturehouse on 3 September is the only ticketed event. There is no need to book for more than 200 new films. Tomorrow’s cinema today – all free to attend!

SUMMARY:Eight Days
DESCRIPTION:1st February 1587. Mary\, Queen of Scots\, after twenty years of captivity\, still remains imprisoned in Fotheringhay castle.\nUnbeknownst to her\, Queen Elizabeth I – her own cousin – has signed her death warrant. \nShe has only eight days left to live. \nHaunted by her past and still protesting her innocence\, in these final eight days Mary is confronted by the consequences of her decisions\, grappling with her inner demons whilst remaining devoted to her faith. \nAs she braces herself for death\, Mary\, still a queen\, deliberately sows the seeds for her own enduring legacy as martyr and icon. \nIn her end was truly her beginning. \nCombining mesmerising and evocative music by Louis Mander and a powerful and moving libretto by Louisa Petaï\, Eight Days is a one-woman opera which draws upon contemporary historical accounts and uses Mary’s own words above all. \n  \nGet your tickets HERE

SUMMARY:Fire Fire | Arcola Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Today\, Eddie is holding a memorial for his brother at a park near their council estate. Today is also the day Paige decides to close the road to this countryside sanctuary in a protest about climate action. \n\nNaturally\, when the pair meet\, sparks fly\, insults are traded in a fiery exchange\, and they expect never to see each other again. \nBut they do. Again. And again. And again. \nUntil they feel there’s no choice but to join forces and take drastic action together. \nFire Fire is an exciting\, moving drama about people taking big risks to protest\, people who love to hate them\, and how some people discover they have more in common than they think.

SUMMARY:The History of Mr Polly: Part One
DESCRIPTION:Desperate times for Mr Polly! \nHe’s stuck in a marriage with his cousin and dragged down by their failing shop.  He detests them both.  How did he let his life get so intolerable? \nWas it his failure to make his own choices?  His escapism and wanderlust?  Or\, inspired by the books he so avidly reads\, falling head over heels for the unattainable Christabel? \nWhatever\, he’s reached the point where drastic measures are called for.  What else can he do but burn everything down? \nBased on H.G. Wells’ comedy of manners\, this is an evening of tragicomic\, tuneful teasing about the lives of the petit bourgeoisie. \nFor everyone who knows what it is to have a dream come to nothing. \nThe production is presented as a staged performance\, conducted by the composer\, directed by Stuart Barker\, with piano reduction of the full score. \n  \nGet your tickets HERE
