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

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:The Lure of... : September
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 our series of ‘Out of the Comfort Zone’ 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 Times does the opposite: we step 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. Previous 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! \n  \nGet your tickets HERE

SUMMARY:Krapp's Last Tape
DESCRIPTION:Peter Marinker\, known for his extensive work on BBC Radio\, his many audiobook recordings\, and his long association with Samuel Beckett’s publisher John Calder\, performs Krapp’s Last Tape. \nAt 84 and recently diagnosed with Alzheimer’s\, Marinker brings decades of experience performing Beckett’s work as he returns to one of the playwright’s most demanding solo roles – with the function of memory in relation to selfhood at the heart of the production. \n​In Krapp’s Last Tape\, Beckett’s one-act monologue written in 1958\, the audience meets a man marking his birthday alone\, while listening to and reflecting on recordings he has made each year on that day. We hear a recording Krapp made at the age of 39 and within it\, his reflections on tapes made in earlier years\, as he makes what we are told is his last tape. \nThis new production will use reel-to reel recordings made by Peter the last time he played Krapp in 1983. Live in-ear prompts\, where needed\, will run alongside the play\, highlighting the relationship between memory and remembering\, cognition and re-cognition. \nFollowing his recent Alzheimer’s diagnosis\, the decision to return to Krapp’s Last Tape at this stage in his life has been a deeply personal one\, allowing Peter to bring his lived experience to Beckett’s exploration of memory and ageing\, intellect\, and intuition. \n  \nGet your tickets HERE

SUMMARY:Dextro (Live AV) + The Silver Field + Hanakiv + Kit Gordon
DESCRIPTION:DEXTRO (LIVE AV)\n\n\nScottish composer & producer Ewan Mackenzie – once the drummer for Glaswegian legends Snowblood (IYKYK) & more recently with Pigs x7 – has carved out a singular reputation under the critically acclaimed Dextro name\, incl. collaborations with UK electronic luminaries James Holden\, Nathan Fake\, & Clark. Live drums push swelling ambient synths\, past every crackle & whir of found sound & field-recordings\, landing somewhere between Four Tet & Explosions in the Sky.\n\n\n\nTHE SILVER FIELD\n\n\nHaunting folk dissolves into exploratory\, experimental textures\, rich vocals\, strings\, reeds and tape-worn ambience. At once both intimate & cinematic\, The Silver Field whispers you closer\, only to blow your mind.

SUMMARY:MARISA ANDERSON + LUCE MAWDLSEY - London Concert
DESCRIPTION:Upset The Rhythm presents… \nMARISA ANDERSON\nLUCE MAWDLSEY\nFriday 4 September\nChats Palace\, 42-44 Brooksby’s Walk\, London\, E9 6DF\n7.30pm | £16 | Tickets: https://link.dice.fm/jf9efbbf668f \nMARISA ANDERSON channels the history of the guitar and stretches the boundaries of tradition. Her playing is fluid\, emotional\, and masterful\, featuring compositions and improvisations that re-imagine the landscape of American music.  The New Yorker calls Anderson ‘one of the most distinctive guitar players of her generation’\, and NPR refers to her as among ‘this era’s most powerful players’. Her music has been featured in Rolling Stone\, NPR\, The New York Times\, Pitchfork\, the BBC and The Wire. Festival appearances include Big Ears\, Pitchfork Midwinter\, Le Guess Who and the Copenhagen Jazz Festival. \nIn addition to her solo work\, Anderson is sought after as a collaborator and composer. Swallowtail\, her second record in duo with drummer Jim White\, was released in May 2024 on Thrill Jockey Records. 2024 also saw the release of the feature film score ‘ A Perfect Day For Caribou’\, as well as appearances on records by Charlie Parr\, Myriam Gendron and Big|Brave. In addition to multiple solo releases\, past projects include 2021’s Lost Futures with guitarist William Tyler\, and contributions to recordings by Matmos\, Tara Jane O’Neil\, Beth Ditto\, Sharon Van Etten and Circuit Des Yeux. Anderson’s new album\, ‘The Anthology of UnAmerican Folk Music’ (out now on Thrill Jockey)\, is a collection of songs culled from the private record collection of the late Harry Smith. Assembled by Anderson after a chance encounter led to an opportunity to study and explore this treasure trove of music\, the Anthology focuses on music from places that the United States has been in conflict with since 1970: Southeast Asia\, the USSR and the Arabic and Islamic regions of the world.\nhttps://marisaanderson.bandcamp.com/ \nLUCE MAWDSLEY specialises in expansively cinematic instrumentals conjuring queer cowboy landscapes via the Northern English coastline. Luce Mawdsley is an autistic nonbinary composer and multiinstrumentalist based in Liverpool with a practice rooted in progressive experimentation. Drawing from a range of poetic art forms\, mythologies\, and landscapes\, their work uses personal experience of neurodivergence\, mental health disorders\, and queerness as a ligature from which to generate subversive explorations of gender\, place\, and identity formation. \nhttps://www.lucemawdsleymusic.com/ \n  \nBook Live Bands for Events in London

SUMMARY:AI and the Enshittification of the Media
DESCRIPTION:What’s gone wrong with the media? We’ve seen decades of decline and collapse as business models make millions for shareholders based on recurring cuts and downgraded quality. \nContent suffers as quality journalism is replaced by churnalism and clickbait. And we are now increasingly seeing AI content threatening to replace the work of human journalists. \nThe NUJ London digital media branch has organised an evening of discussion about the problems facing the media and journalism\, led by Cory Doctorow. \nCory will discuss the issues in his recent non-fiction books: \n\nThe Reverse Centaur’s Guide to Life after AI (June 2026): A provocative guide to what’s good\, bad\, and (profoundly) stupid about AI.\nEnshittification: Why Everything Suddenly Got Worse and What to Do About It (Oct 2025): How misogyny\, conspiratorialism\, surveillance\, manipulation\, fraud and AI slop are drowning the internet.\n\nCory will also be joined by journalists who have been victims of the decaying media\, recently made redundant as their skills are no longer required by the business to discuss what’s gone wrong.

SUMMARY:Walk The Bard - London Theatre
DESCRIPTION:This August\, audiences are invited to step inside Shakespeare’s world at one of England’s most remarkable historic venues. \nFrom 29–31 August\, Walk the Bard will transform the hidden gardens of London’s Middle Temple into a live\, immersive theatrical adventure\, bringing together six curated scenes from Shakespeare’s most treasured plays\, set across the decades\, all exploring love\, laughter and heartbreak. \nCreated especially for this extraordinary setting\, Walk the Bard takes audiences on a captivating stroll through the beautiful Elm Court Garden. Led by a playful Elizabethan fool\, reimagined for the modern day\, visitors move through the gardens as the stories unfold around them in a theatrical experience unlike any other in London. \nWearing immersive audio headsets\, audiences are drawn into every whispered secret and every sound\, from the joyful bustle of a summer wedding to the gentle chirping of Tuscan crickets\, as though they are part of the story themselves. \nPerformed by an exceptional cast of emerging actors\, Walk the Bard offers an intimate and contemporary interpretation of Shakespeare\, alongside the unique opportunity to experience theatre at the very site where Twelfth Night is thought to have been first performed. \nThere are five daily performances starting at 1200\, 1400\, 1600\, 1800 and 2000. Tickets\, priced at £39.50\, include a welcome glass of sparkling wine\, wine\, beer or soft drink in Fountain Court and an exclusive tour\, guided by Middle Temple’s Master Treasurer\, KC\, of the iconic Great Hall\, with its famous 16th-century double hammer beam roof and legendary 9-metre oak table\, possibly a gift from Queen Elizabeth I. \n  \nGreat Hall tours begin at 1315\, 1515\, 1715 and 1915. If you have tickets for a 2000 Walk the Bard performance\, please join the 1915 tour of the hall. \nEntrances via Fleet Street and Tudor Street. \nSuitable for ages 12 and above \nWe request wheelchair users attending make themselves known to the box office at least 20 minutes before the performance is due to begin. \nCustomers who arrive late for a performance may not be admitted until a suitable break.

SUMMARY:In Her Defence - London Musical Theatre
DESCRIPTION:In Her Defence\, an original British musical comedy written by Harrison Cranfield\, will make its debut at Camden Fringe this August. Set against the vibrant backdrop of 1987\, the production follows Donna\, a fiery single mother whose life is turned upside down when she discovers her husband’s affair\, only to find herself caught in the middle of a chaotic custody battle. \nAs gossip spreads through her close-knit neighbourhood faster than the morning post\, Donna must navigate solicitors\, awkward encounters\, unexpected allies and the challenge of rebuilding her life while protecting the people she loves most. Alongside a sharp-tongued best friend and a very questionable postman\, Donna discovers that finding her voice may be the most important battle of all. \nBlending laugh-out-loud comedy with genuine emotional warmth\, In Her Defence captures the spirit of 1980s Britain through colourful characters\, sharp dialogue and an original score full of wit and heart. The musical explores themes of resilience\, friendship\, family and standing up for yourself when the world expects you to stay silent. \nSpeaking about the production\, writer Harrison Cranfield said: \n“I wanted to create a musical that feels unmistakably British: funny\, heartfelt and rooted in characters audiences can recognise and connect with. At its core\, In Her Defence is about finding strength in difficult circumstances and discovering that your voice matters\, even when everything around you is trying to drown it out.” \nPacked with memorable musical numbers\, eccentric personalities and plenty of 1980s charm\, In Her Defence promises a lively and entertaining theatrical experience. The show combines the energy of a classic British comedy with the emotional depth of a story about self-discovery and resilience\, offering audiences both laughter and heart. \nThe production is particularly suited to audiences who enjoy original British musical theatre\, character-led comedy and stories that celebrate strong female voices. Its blend of humour\, warmth and recognisable social dynamics makes it an appealing addition to the Camden Fringe programme.

SUMMARY:Eyes See Song
DESCRIPTION:Six friends. Three secrets. One yearning hope. We enter a tangled web of love\, loyalty\, shame\, and survival\, as six women discover their world isn’t what it seems. Beneath the surface of six “ordinary” lives lie stories of reproductive health struggles\, sexual violence\, and addiction — stories so familiar they could belong to us\, our friends\, our mothers. As their masks fall away\, we’re invited to recognise our own hidden truths\, tucked deep in our bodies and away from those we love most. \nThese women call us into their circle — into song\, dance\, movement\, breathwork\, and collective release\, as they fight to loosen trauma’s grip on the body. With irresistible energy and magnetic charm\, Matty\, Lala\, Laure\, Wrinkles\, Z\, and Chlo remind us healing is never a solo act. It’s messy\, communal\, vulnerable\, and profoundly human.\nIn an age when isolation is becoming the norm and intimacy outsourced to screens\, Eyes See Song insists we return to each other\, loudly\, joyfully\, in full-bodied presence. It’s two parts a warm hug from your favourite aunt\, one part your best friends shaking you into your senses\, and three parts what your nervous system has been craving. For lovers of music\, movement and fearless storytelling\, ready to face the shadows and dance in the light; Join us! We’re holding space for you. \n“Unfurling and celebrating the dimensions of women through blending spoken word\, song and movement to honour layered experiences. ***”\n— Sheleina Somani\, Everything Theatre

SUMMARY:British Youth Music Theatre - Frankenstein
DESCRIPTION:Fear spreads fast\, but judgment builds terrifying momentum. \nThis visceral new musical adaptation of Frankenstein rips into society’s gaze: how do we decide who is dangerous\, who is worthy\, and who is denied humanity altogether? Fast‑paced and drenched in tension\, it hurtles through a world where snap judgements turn lethal and rejection becomes a force of its own. \nPerformed by a ferocious cast of young performers\, this production never slows to catch its breath. Scenes snap by with cinematic intensity\, driven by an urgent\, propulsive score\, sharp jump scares and bold theatrical set pieces that keep audiences on edge. \nWritten by Victoria Gimby (Writer)\, Jimmy Jewell (Composer) and Nick Stimson (Lyricist)\, this adaptation exposes the violence of judgment itself. \nRelentless and unsettling\, Frankenstein is a gripping theatrical experience that leaves no room to look away.
