SUMMARY:Dolly’s Clinic | Coningsby Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Presented off-site by Mandy Zhang Art and guest curated by Joséphine May Bailey\, Dolly’s Clinic places Annie Trevorah’s enquiry into aesthetics\, bodily modification and the politics of appearance in context of medieval bestiaries and surrealist imaginations. \nReferencing the language and rituals of the contemporary beauty industry\, Trevorah introduces a meticulously realised aesthetics clinic for animals named after the first cloned mammal. A cast of six matte aluminium sculptures\, each enhanced with organic elements\, model a range of signature procedures\, complete with consultant’s notes and recovery plans. An interactive AR visualisation by multimedia artist Dr Blanca Regina invites viewers to join an exfoliated poodle’s celebration of its smooth new body. \nBeneath a playful and humorous surface\, the exhibition raises fundamental questions about humanity’s relationship with other species. With Dolly’s Clinic Annie Trevorah challenges the assumption that humans alone possess the authority to determine how other living beings should look\, function and evolve\, while exploring the contradictions between personal freedoms and external pressures. \nOpening Times \nWed\, 4th\, Thurs 5th\, Fri 6th\, / 10 am – 6pm / Sat\, 7th 11am – 6pm \nTues 10th\, Wed 12th\, Fri 13th / 10 am – 6pm / Sat\, 14th 11am – 6pm \nGallery closed / Sun\, 8th Nov & Mon\, 9th Nov

SUMMARY:Brother Tree Sound: Folk Tales\, Landscapes and a Life Story
DESCRIPTION:For this 30th edition of the Made in Prague festival\, Brother Tree Sound will play 3 string quartets with fascinating connections to Prague. They will be playing a quartet bursting with folk melodies\, dances and life – quartet no 1 ‘From my Life’ by the 19th century Czech composer Bedřich Smetana\, who was considered by many to be the father of Czech classical music and whose music is inspired by the history\, legends and landscape of his native Bohemia. This autobiographical quartet tells the composer’s life story in four parts\, from the carefree early days of his youth\, through midlife love and heartache\, to his later years\, when the music depicts the anguish he felt with the onset of his deafness. \nElizabeth Maconchy was born in England to Irish parents. She studied with Ralph Vaughan Williams. Feeling drawn to the music of Eastern Europe and composers such as Janáček\, she travelled to Prague to study with Czech composer Karel Boleslav Jirák. Her quartet no. 3 is short but intensely felt\, with discussion between the four players around a central theme that dominates with intent. \nKateřina Horká is an emerging Czech composer. Her String Quartet no. 2 ‘Icelandic Landscape’ was the winning piece of the 7th Antonín Dvořák Composition Competition. Kateřina’s music draws inspiration from many styles and genres. This quartet is evocative and spacious\, depicting the vast open spaces of Iceland. \nProgramme:\nBedřich Smetana String Quartet No. 1 in E minor ‘From My Life / Z mého života\nElizabeth Maconchy String Quartet No. 3\, op. 15\nKateřina Horká String Quartet No. 2 ‘Icelandic Landscape’ \nBrother Tree Sound\, string quartet \nHire String Quartets and String Ensembles in London.

SUMMARY:Binary Lives - Where Fate Takes Us | The Cockpit Theatre
DESCRIPTION:A train never arrives. Time slips out of sync.\nAs the world rushes elsewhere\, two strangers\, trapped on the same station bench\, invent increasingly absurd ways to fill the empty hours. \nBlending visually poetic performance and physical theatre\, this wordless duet transforms a familiar transit space into a playground of balance\, imagination\, and human connection. \nIn this suspended dimension\, everything changes shape: glances turn into conversations\, quarrels become playful games\, and shared silences evolve into an unexpected encounter. Two parallel lives slowly interfere\, clash\, and briefly align. \nFunny\, tender\, and quietly surreal\, it turns boredom into play\, proving that sometimes the most radical journey is not moving at all. \nThe show is performed without words; drawing on a universal language\, the two performers range from physical theatre to contemporary circus\, in a poetic and ethereal atmosphere. \nThe show won the ‘Best Direction’ award at the Rome Fringe Festival and was selected for the Thessaloniki Fringe. It has been touring Italy for two years.

SUMMARY:Good Sex | Battersea Arts Centre
DESCRIPTION:How do you have sex on stage? How do you even have sex?\nTo try and find an answer\, each night\, two brand new performers tell a story of desire\, betrayal and loneliness. They have never rehearsed together or read the script. They are strangers. \nBut they are not alone – to help and guide them they are joined on stage by an Intimacy Director\, trained in the art of teaching people how to touch. So\, you can be rest assured that the sex will be safe. It will be consensual. And it will be good. \nSince its premiere at Dublin Theatre Festival in 2022\, Good Sex has toured across Europe and to New York\, and now makes it’s UK premiere. \nAcclaimed theatre makers Dead Centre\, with award-winning novelist and essayist Emilie Pine\, present a sublimely funny love story for a loveless age. \n\n“Raw\, unsettling\, seductive\, provocative and very\, very funny”\n★★★★★ Irish Times\n \n“Beguiling\, chaotic\, hilarious and profound… a brilliant\, vital piece of theatre”\n★★★★★ Irish Examiner \n  \nFor exact showtimes\, visit their website HERE

SUMMARY:Dünyada | The Space
DESCRIPTION:Dünyada (on earth) comes to The Space for three performances at Voila! Theatre Festival. Mehmet Ali Nuroğlu brings a stranger’s memories of home\, love and loss into an intimate\, darkly funny solo show\, reimagining Will Eno’s Title and Deed. First-time theatregoers are welcome. \n“I’m not from here.” \nA man arrives with a suitcase\, a camera\, and a voice that seems sad somehow. \nThis November\, internationally acclaimed actor and director Mehmet Ali Nuroğlu brings his visceral\, high-intensity solo performance Dünyada to Voila! Theatre Festival. Dünyada\, meaning “on earth”\, is a formally adventurous solo theatre that tears the fabric of one-person play through cinematic camera work\, visual extension and sound design. Reimagining Will Eno’s celebrated monologue Title and Deed\, the production offers an evocative exploration of alienation and belonging\, and an exitential exploration of love and death in a digital age. \nNuroğlu walking the thin line between the mundane duties of keeping things going and the emotional disorder of remembering (like all of us). In a raw\, technical struggle\, he manages lighting and soundscapes in real-time\, creating a parallax between his physical body and his digital ghost. \nIntimate\, funny\, unsettling\, and deeply\, deeply human. \nA salute to the progress in life\, to being here\, now\, right now. On stage.

SUMMARY:Translation Salon: Kafkaesque (In person) | The London Library
DESCRIPTION:The London Library contains books in\, on and translated from a whole world of languages. To celebrate the incredible scope of that collection\, we are delighted to introduce our new Translation Salon\, which will explore multiple perspectives and ideas around language and the intricate art of translation. \nFor our inaugural salon\, host\, translator and translation expert Daniel Hahn will be joined by Maïa Hruska\, author of a new book\, Kafkaesque\, which tells the story of the translators who saved the work of Franz Kafka from oblivion. \nFor years after his early death\, Kafka existed almost entirely through the wildly different readings of his words by his early translators\, many of whom would later be counted amongst the greatest thinkers and writers of all time. Primo Levi translated Kafka into Italian from the German he had learned in Auschwitz; Milena Jesenská lovingly into Czech before being deported; Bruno Schulz into Polish before being shot by an SS officer; and Jorge Luis Borges into Spanish as he slowly went blind in Buenos Aires. His French translator found new humour hidden inside Kafka’s work\, while his Russian translators were condemned to perpetual anonymity by the Soviet censor. \nCome along and join the conversation about this fascinating history of Kafka’s work\, the act of translation and some of the greatest minds\, tragedies and absurdities of the twentieth century. \nIn partnership with the Jewish Literary Foundation. \nMaïa Hruska was born to a Czech-French family\, raised in Germany and now lives in London\, working as a lawyer\, like Kafka. A graduate of University of Cambridge and Kings College London\, Hruska is fluent in Czech\, French\, German\, and English. Kafkaesque is her first book. \nDaniel Hahn is a writer\, editor and translator. Books published in 2026 include If This Be Magic: the unlikely art of Shakespeare in translation\, and translations of fiction from Mexico\, Peru\, Argentina\, Guatemala\, Brazil and Chile. He is currently translating an Angolan novel and co-editing (with Padma Viswanathan) The Penguin Book of Brazilian Short Stories. \nThe Jewish Literary Foundation (JLF) presents the best in contemporary Jewish literature and ideas. From its flagship annual festival Jewish Book Week\, to its free JLF Player streaming platform\, creative opportunities and live cultural experiences\, the JLF connects\, inspires and entertains year-round. For events\, creative opportunities\, new video releases and more\, sign up to their newsletter. \nOur events programme is presented in partnership with Hakluyt & Company\, the global strategic advisory firm for businesses and investors. \nBooks by the speakers will be available to buy at the event and online from our partner bookshop Hatchards. \nNB This event will take place in person in the New Room at The London Library. Doors and the bar will open at 6.30pm\, the talk will run from 7-8pm and the bar will stay open until 8.30pm. Please see our Event Access Guidelines before you arrive. \nLondon Library events are subject to Terms & Conditions

SUMMARY:Better Go Mad in the Wild + Q&A with director Miro Remo
DESCRIPTION:Deep in the Šumava Mountains\, identical twins František and Ondřej have created a life far from the gaze of society. On their ramshackle farm\, they tend to their animals\, swim in forest lakes\, compose poetry\, drink\, philosophise and bicker – before making up and starting all over again. But beneath their eccentric routines lie two very different spirits: František dreams of freedom and adventure\, while Ondřej longs for the comfort of the familiar. As their unbreakable bond is put to the test\, their unconventional world becomes a funny and moving reflection on brotherhood\, solitude and the desire to live life on your own terms. Remo playfully blurs the line between reality and fairy tale\, mixing semi-staged vignettes\, striking visual tableaux\, a talking cow and plenty of anarchic humour. Warm\, eccentric and full of surprises\, Better Go Mad in the Wild is a wonderfully offbeat celebration of two charismatic outsiders who have created their own way of seeing – and living – in the world. \nMiro Remo\, Czech Republic\, Slovakia 2025\, 84´\, English subtitles \n  \n2025 Crystal Globe Winner at the Karlovy Vary Film Festival \nPresented at IDFA – Best of Fests\, \nCzech Lions: Best Cinematography\, Best Editing\, Best Documentary Film \n“Sprightly\, warm\, and endearing portraiture … conjuring little moments of magic by slowing down for long enough to notice all the details of two born outsiders who turned nature into their own private sanctuary.” – RogerEbert.com \nVariety’s Guy Lodge shared the love for the film\, calling it a “poignant\, permanent imprint of lives largely lived far outside the gaze of society and the authorities.” \nLondon Premiere organised in collaboration with Tributary Releasing\, UK distributor of the film. \nThis event is a part of the 30th Made in Prague Festival organised by Czech Centre London.

SUMMARY:Legend of Kaliakra | Cockpit Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Inspired by the legend of forty maidens who chose death over slavery\, Legend of Kaliakra explores the hidden emotional lives of the women behind one of Bulgaria’s most enduring stories. Blending poetic text and music\, the production explores what remains unseen in history: the psychological and emotional worlds of the women behind the legend – their fears\, guilt\, love\, courage\, and confrontation with the oppressor. \nThrough four interconnected female perspectives\, the work reimagines a historical narrative as a story of choice\, dignity\, and freedom. Performed in Bulgarian with English subtitles. Elitsaa Yovcheva directed the play at the National Theatre and the Youth Theatre in Bulgaria. The show premiered in Sofia in 2023 and has since toured cities along the Bulgarian Black Sea coast. Making its London premiere at the VOILA! Festival\, Legend of Kaliakra invites UK audiences to encounter a powerful Bulgarian story through the shared language of theatre\, movement\, and music.

SUMMARY:Ballerinas
DESCRIPTION:“They have two faces. The smiling\, perfect one the audience sees. And then the dark one that emerges behind the curtain\, when the rehearsed smile falls and the face contorts into a grimace because they are choking…” \nPart memoir\, part reckoning\, Ballerinas is a raw\, darkly comic exploration of the elite ballet conservatory system and the feverish atmosphere of the 1990s. Adapted from her acclaimed autobiographical novel\, performer and director Miřenka Čechová traces the often brutal journey of young girls pursuing ballet dreams\, exposing a world shaped by discipline\, ambition and sacrifice. \nBlending movement\, theatre and personal testimony\, Čechová creates a deeply intimate work that lays bare both the physical demands and psychological cost of artistic training. Revisiting past traumas with unsparing honesty and self-deprecating humour\, Ballerinas becomes not only an examination of a toxic system\, but also a powerful search for identity\, resilience and catharsis. \nThe show will be performed in English.  \nMiřenka Čechová is a Czech author\, choreographer\, director and performer whose multidisciplinary practice spans theatre\, dance and documentary storytelling.

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. If you book for the workshop\, you’ll receive a 65% discount on tickets for the séance. To book for both and to receive the discount\, please book through the workshop listing. \nSophie Herxheimer is an artist and poet. Her art has been shown at the National Portrait Gallery\, The Museum of Liverpool and Tate Modern. Her collection Velkom to Inklandt was a Sunday Times book of the year. 60 Lovers to Make and Do was a TLS book of the year and INDEX is a boxed deck of 78 prophetic collage poem cards. Her latest book\, Ode to Joy\, (in collaboration with film maker Sarah Gavron) combines drawing\, writing and collage to create a new type of graphic novel. \nClare Pollard’s sixth collection of poetry with Bloodaxe is Lives of the Female Poets. Her poem ‘Pollen’ was shortlisted for the Forward Prize. She translated Ovid’s Heroines for Bloodaxe\, which she toured as a one-woman show. Her play The Weather was performed at the Royal Court Theatre\, she wrote the non-fiction title Fierce Bad Rabbits: The Tales Behind Children’s Picture Books\, her adult novels are Delphi and The Modern Fairies\, which won the Tadeusz Bradecki Prize and her latest children’s novel is The Othernauts. \nHelen Bowell is a poet\, producer\, workshop facilitator and co-director of Dead [Women] Poets Society writer. Helen’s debut pamphlet The Barman was published by Bad Betty Press in 2022 and was selected as the Poetry Book Society Summer 2022 Pamphlet Choice. \nOur events programme is presented in partnership with Hakluyt & Company\, the global strategic advisory firm for businesses and investors. \nBooks by the speakers and resurrected poets will be available to buy at the event and online from our partner bookshop Hatchards. \nThis event will take place in person in the New Room at The London Library.

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
