SUMMARY:The Radical Wedding Engine | Cockpit Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Five people decide to get married. To each other. Sort of. But how do you build a wedding when the rules don’t quite fit? The Radical Wedding Engine is a playful experiment in marriage\, chosen family and artistic partnership. Five East Asian migrant artists who have worked together for years take the wedding apart and put it back together again — testing vows\, rituals\, traditions and expectations along the way. What happens when an artistic partnership starts to look like a marriage? Can a wedding celebrate friendship\, collaboration and chosen family? And what might commitment look like beyond the couple? Moving between sincerity and absurdity\, intimacy and spectacle\, they explore different ways of caring\, committing and belonging\, while attempting to build a ceremony of their own. Developed through The Yard Theatre’s Live Drafts programme and a Making Space residency at Battersea Arts Centre.

SUMMARY:Little Thief + Q&A with director Ondřej Hudeček and actor Václav Neužil
DESCRIPTION:Fresh out of prison\, good-hearted small-time thief Lupyn returns to his hometown in South Moravia\, only to find the world turned upside down by the pandemic. With businesses struggling and the usual rules seemingly suspended\, his particular talents suddenly offer an unlikely way to help those around him. But when Lupyn’s plans bring him into the orbit of local crime boss Asasín and corrupt policeman Čeněk (wonderfully played by Václav Neužil) – who happens to be dating Lupyn’s mother- things quickly become more complicated than he bargained for. \nThis feature debut from Sundance-winning director Ondřej Hudeček is a sharp and wonderfully earthy mix of black comedy\, crime and satire. Steeped in local dialect\, characters and atmosphere\, it puts a distinctly Czech spin on the classic heist comedy\, delivering a mischievous ‘Covid Western ‘ where the boundaries between right and wrong become increasingly blurred. \nOndřej Hudeček\, Czech Republic 2026\, 118‘\, English subtitles\nCast: Matyáš Řezníček\, Václav Neužil\, Stanislav Majer\, Denisa Barešová \, Eva Vrbková

SUMMARY:Mark Thomas: 40 In Stand Up Years
DESCRIPTION:One of our oldest surviving alternative comics celebrates 40 years at the mic as he brings his brand-new show to the Leicester Square Theatre for an extra show! \nSo\, here’s what he has done so far in numbers; performed comedy for 40 years\, won 8 awards for performing\, 4 for human rights work and 1 he invented for himself\, made 6 series of the Mark Thomas Comedy Product (Channel 4)\, written 6 books and 5 play scripts\, made 5 series of the Manifesto for Radio 4\, made 3 Dispatches for Channel 4\, sued the police (and won) 3 times\, curated and authored 2 art exhibitions with artist Tracey Moberly and had 1 Guinness World Record for holding 20 protests in 24 hours. \nIf that’s not enough\, he’s also walked 724km around the length of the Israel Wall in the West Bank\, been credited with changing the law on tax avoidance\, started a comedy club in Palestine with Dr Sam Beale and campaigned successfully for things like trade union recognition for cinema workers and getting multinationals to change their practices. You’re right\, there’s more\, but your attention is running out and we’re running out of space. So\, let’s just say he’s generally mucked about trying to have fun and upset the right people…which he is really\, really good at. \nThis is a taster menu of political and personal mayhem\, jokes\, rants and a state of the nation broadcast as he tries to turn ‘what the hell is going on’ into a cogent evening of stand-up.

SUMMARY:Huella by Isadora - London Theatre
DESCRIPTION:At the edge of ecological collapse\, Huella unfolds around an ambiguous waterfall carrying the memory of water\, as new geologies emerge. Through eco-poetic symbolism\, a danced installation-performance of textural and flamenco soundscapes traverses dissonant yet porous\, solastalgic bodies and landscapes\, entangled in the waterfall’s trace.\nOpening onto an uncertain time between an altered present and a future archive\, the waterfall holds play\, intimacies\, rituals\, human and animal passages\, alongside contaminated sediments and materials that persist. \nHuella emerges from the lived tension of perceiving the living world’s alteration while continuing to inhabit everyday life. It resonates with solastalgia: the feeling that arises as a familiar environment transforms while we are still living within it.\nThe narrative is embodied through a movement language inspired by contemporary improvisation and the geometries of Vogue and flamenco aesthetics.\nFragments from Lorca’s Suites and Libro de poemas also appear as poetic undercurrents. \nIsadora is a French-Tunisian artist working across movement\, performance and installation\, born in Paris and based in London. As a Vogue performer and member of the Iconic House of Milan (as Isadora Milan)\, she walks balls internationally. She develops an experimental movement language inspired by New Way Vogue\, Arms Control\, contemporary improvisation and flamenco. Her hybrid practice seeks to unsettle dominant perceptions of feminine representation and embodiment\, while increasingly engaging with ecological transformation and with human and more-than-human experiences. She also works with costume and objects as spaces for transformation and play. \nDirected and performed by: Isadora\nInstallation concept: Isadora\nCante: Carlos de Luisa\nOriginal guitar composition and live guitar: Michael McMahon\nCostume design: Isadora\, Amber Jiang\nLighting design: Emma Gasson. \nBooking: https://tickets.thecockpit.org.uk/sales/Shows/voila-festival-2026/huella

SUMMARY:The Lure of... : November
DESCRIPTION:Join the team behind the independent investigative news outlet Byline Times for an entertaining evening of challenging discussion to help us understand the unprecedented times we are living in – and why they are happening – with those with an inside track. \nThere’s no shortage of strong opinions in Britain today – what’s missing is good-faith debate. Too much of our national conversation has become performative. It seems designed to inflame rather than illuminate. \nThat’s why Byline Times launched a series of events at the Cockpit in 2025. These interactive discussions have sparked genuinely unexpected and illuminating moments. \nAt a time when many of Britain’s most powerful media proprietors remain distant and unseen\, Byline does the opposite: stepping out from behind the editorial line and into the room. \nHosted by Byline Times Editor-in-Chief Hardeep Matharu and Co-Founder Peter Jukes\, plus a wide-ranging variety of guest authors\, campaigners and thought leaders. \nPrevious guests have included: broadcaster and academic Bonnie Greer\, journalist and activist Femi Oluwole\, novelist Jake Arnott\, Camerados founder Maff Potts\, XR and Humanity Project co-founder Clare Farrell\, author and Women’s Equality Party co-founder Catherine Mayer\, Conservative commentator Albie Amankona\, investigative journalist and author Nafeez Ahmed\, Asylum Speakers founder Jaz O’Hara\, author and broadcaster John Sweeney and many many more… \nIn addition to current affairs\, there’s also laughter\, readings\, music\, poetry – there’s even been dancing and a good old sing song round the old Joanna – every night is different!

SUMMARY:Dead [Women] Poets Séance: Sophie Herxheimer & Clare Pollard resurrect Amy Levy & Christina Rossetti (In person)
DESCRIPTION:Who are the Dead Women Poets? How dead are they? And what is our relationship to them\, as contemporary writers\, artists\, ‘queens of the whole world’? \nJoin us as we join forces with Dead [Women] Poets Society\, who\, since 2015\, have been resurrecting women and non-binary poets of the past. At The London Library – the perfect venue for resurrecting the ghosts of poets past – our spooky poet-mediums Sophie Herxheimer and Clare Pollard will commune with the spirits of Amy Levy and Christina Rossetti\, two subversive\, darkly imaginative\, outsider Victorian poets (whose friends and family once wandered the Library stacks). We’ll hear more about their lives and works\, and the influence they’ve had on our two living poets. We’ll also be treated to readings by our poet-necromancers\, haunted by the ghosts of these two dead women poets and all will be compered by poet Helen Bowell of the D[W]PS. \nThe resurrections will continue with the popular Dead [Women] Poets Society open mic\, for which we welcome poets and performers of all and no genders to the stage. The only rule: for every poem of your own\, you should also read/perform one by a dead woman or non-binary poet. \nThere’ll also be the chance to get your hands on books by our guest poets\, dead poets and D[W]PS merch. \nLearning from Dead [Women] Poets: Poetry Workshop – Clare Pollard will be teaching a poetry workshop\, inspired by dead women poets\, which will take place at the Library from 3.30-5.30pm the same day.

SUMMARY:Three Little Pigs | Cockpit Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Every day\, thousands of migrant construction workers raise homes\, offices\, theatres and hospitals\, spaces where other lives unfold. They build stability\, safety and permanence\, often while living in temporary rooms\, on unstable contracts\, with families far away and futures on hold. ‘Three Little Pigs’ is a new theatre performance informed by conversations with construction workers across the UK. Developed following conversations with migrant construction workers\, the play begins with three construction workers on a building site. The piece sits somewhere between comedy and drama\, much like life on site itself. There is constant humour in the routines\, in the banter\, in the absurd situations that arise day to day. Jokes become a way of coping\, of bonding\, of getting through long hours and difficult conditions. At the same time\, those moments sit alongside the pressure\, the risk and the things that are harder to say out loud. The story is also rooted in real experience. Director Sava Cebotari came to the UK after being forced to leave Russia following the war in Ukraine and worked in construction to support his family while trying to find his way back into theatre. The people he met there helped open the door to the wider research process behind the piece. Built from conversation\, research and lived experience\, Three Little Pigs offers a glimpse into the lives behind the labour. \nThe play is ENTIRELY FICTIONAL. Writer: Inna Cebotari Director: Sava Cebotari

SUMMARY:What Makes Great Drama Great? - Screenwriting Masterclass with Eleanor Greene (In person)
DESCRIPTION:Why do great stories make us gasp\, or catch our breath in wonder? Why does a moment of raw\, flawed humanity stop us in our tracks? And why\, even in the darkest tales\, does a flash of levity increase our enjoyment of the story? \nIn this masterclass\, led by award-winning executive producer and script editor Eleanor Greene\, we will explore the key elements of successful drama\, starting not with structure or formula\, but with something more fundamental: how we experience our favourite stories\, and why some of them stay with us forever. \nEleanor has spent her career inside the room where stories get made: developing scripts\, working with writers\, and producing drama at the highest level. In this masterclass\, she shares the framework she has developed through that experience: the essential elements that every great story needs to move an audience. \nIn the morning session we will explore these elements through the lens of existing successful shows and films\, examining why they work\, why they affect us the way they do\, and what writers do to create those effects deliberately. \nIn the afternoon we move from theory to practice\, with a series of hands-on exercises designed to improve specific aspects of your writing: how to write sharper dialogue\, how to eradicate exposition\, how to use subtext to build tension in a scene\, and how to construct a series quickly and confidently using the tools we explored from the morning’s session. \nYou will leave with a framework you can apply immediately\, and a clearer sense of the writer you want to be. \nEleanor Greene is an award-winning creative with over 25 years experience in developing\, pitching and producing scripted TV and film. A BAFTA nominated Drama Executive Producer\, Script Editor and TV fanatic she has made shows across many genres and lengths\, including sitcom\, thriller\, police procedural\, political\, historical and factual drama\, multi episodic series and features. \nThis workshop takes place in person in the New Room at the Library. Doors will open at 10.15am for a 10.30am start. Please see our Event Access Guidelines before you arrive. \nTea and coffee will be provided throughout and we will have pens and paper available but feel free to bring your own writing material. We will break for an hour for lunch and you are welcome to bring your lunch with you – there is a fridge – or there are plenty of places to buy food nearby. \nLondon Library events are subject to Terms & Conditions

SUMMARY:Re-Enchant: November | Cockpit Theatre
DESCRIPTION:RE:ENCHANT – Poetic Experiments For A New World. Live literature every third Sunday. 15 November 2026. Featuring Gale Burns\, Luigi Coppola and Nadia Larina\, plus open mic slots. Curated and introduced by Nick Moss in collaboration with The Cockpit. Readings\, recitations\, incantations and performances from established and upstart poets and word artists. \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA Cockpit & Emergence Production\n\n\nRE-ENCHANT – Poetic Experiments For A New World \nA poetry and spoken word session: we welcome established writers as well as new work and new performers to challenge us and shake us all out of our complacency. \nRe-Enchant is run by poets – but it’s not for poets. We don’t want to talk to ourselves. Poetry\, if it’s to survive and develop as an art form\, has to be about communication. If we are only talking to ourselves\, then we’ve failed. Poetry began as an oral form – the Vedas\, the Epic of Gilgamesh\, the Odyssey. We don’t claim the same brilliance\, but we do want to document our history and challenge the narratives of our times. \nWe have entered an era when the progressive values we fought for are being bulldozed into reverse. In days like these\, creative work can seem futile and irrelevant. Re-Enchant is a commitment to the idea that words can change things. Poetry is a place where we have the chance to play with concepts\, explore new forms of thinking and discuss other ways of living. Poetry is a commitment to experimentation. We want to hear from new voices – we want to hear from the voices that are always shut out from the arts. We want to dethrone the laureates. Come and join us. As The Jam once sang\, “If we communicate for two minutes only/It will be a start.” \nThe world changes: we make new poetry to vandalise literary forms or retrieve those we need to renew.  We make new poetry to hybridise new species of understanding and reframe consciousness. \nWe make new poetry to have a good time.

SUMMARY:Panel Talk: Staging the (Un)translatable: Global Voices and Panlingual Dramaturgies
DESCRIPTION:Join professional theatre-makers\, dramaturgs\, translators\, publishers and researchers for a panel talk to examine the interrelation between (un)translatability\, (un)stageability and (un)performability. \nWe will reflect on these topics in the context of Voila! Theatre festival championing work by artists working across multiple languages\, at a time when the UK theatre landscape is increasingly taking note of transnational artists and audiences. \nWe will address panlingualism in the theatre\, alongside the experience of making work in languages other than English and/or the creatives’ own mother tongue. \nWe will reflect on what it means to be an exophonic artist\, and how migration challenges the notion of the ‘native speaker’. The event will include a short reading from a contemporary play\, with a view to serve as a prompt for an applied conversation on the topic. Moderator: Dr Jozefina Komporaly (UAL Wimbledon College of Arts\, academic and translator)

SUMMARY:A Song and Dance | Battersea Arts Centre
DESCRIPTION:A performance about masking\, performing and ‘acting the part.’ \nAfter their 2023 sell-out run of The Talent\, Action Hero are back and definitely not making a scene. \nLost inside a recurring nightmare filled with the phantoms of his disapproving ancestors\, a reluctant actor returns to the stage. In an attempt to conquer an 8-year period of intense stage fright\, he replays his own life story and starts to lose the plot.  \nBut he’s not going to make a big song and dance about it. \nInstead\, he’s determined to keep the show on the road\, re-writing his anxiety dreams live on stage with you\, the audience\, in the hope of banishing the ghosts of performances past. \n“Thrillingly funny and strange. Beckett’s hip\, pop-culture savvy descendants”\nTime Out \n“I have never seen a show from these artists that didn’t make you sit up a little straighter and want to peer a little more closely”\nStagedoor \n  \nFor exact showtimes\, visit their website HERE

SUMMARY:Only Beautiful Things to Look At + Q&A with director Ivan Ostrochovský and actress Aňa Geislerová
DESCRIPTION:Ingrid (Aňa Geislerová)\, a successful gynaecologist at a district hospital in late-1980s Czechoslovakia\, lives a comfortable life with her music-teacher husband Maroš in a beautiful house in the countryside. At work\, she delivers babies\, performs abortions and takes part in sterilisation procedures\, often without her Roma patients’ informed consent\, believing she is acting in their best interests. But when Agáta\, a young Romany woman\, joins the hospital staff\, Ingrid’s carefully ordered world begins to shift. As the two form an unexpected bond\, Ingrid is forced to confront the unsettling truth that even the noblest intentions cannot justify the means. \nWinner of the FIPRESCI Award at the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival\, Ostrochovský’s beguiling\, intimate drama confronts a suppressed chapter of Czechoslovak history\, when the state sought to control women’s reproductive choices and Roma women were subjected to forced sterilisation under the guise of modernisation\, care and medical progress. \nIvan Ostrochovský\, Slovak Republic\, Czech Republic\, Hungary 2026\, 88´\, English subtitles\nCast: Aňa Geislerová\, Simona Boledovičová\, Eva Mores\, Vlad Ivanov\, Éva Bandor\, Attila Mokos
