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.

SUMMARY:Albatross - London Theatre
DESCRIPTION:What does one generation owe the next?\nBy Martha Loader (Winner\, George Devine Award 2025)  \nAward-winning Martha Loader is one of the finest young playwrights working in Britain today. Albatross takes us to the very boundaries of love in the age of climate catastrophe. Do our deep family ties make us act with more care or blind to catastrophe?   \n Alice\, a successful scientist\, returns from a gruelling Antarctic trip\, to her daughter Alba and her mother Eve.  There’s been a flood\, a new romance and now a strange gift.  It’s 1.30am.  Alba sleeps. Eve has never been more awake\, dreaming of freedom from a life of commitment to others.  And Alice?  Maybe those cracks she discovered in the Antarctic ice have followed her home.  And maybe they’re also calling her to go back…   \n Albatross explores how we mess up when we just want to make things better. Like all families\, it is explosive\, tender and often hilarious. It reveals the human heart to be more vulnerable than we hope but stronger than we believe. And throughout it all\, the burning question – what does one generation owe the next?

SUMMARY:Shadow Fate - Theatre Performance for the Day of Hungarian Culture
DESCRIPTION:On the occasion of the Day of Hungarian Culture\, we warmly invite you to the one-act performance\, Shadow Fate on January 22\, 2026\, at Hungary House\, produced by Klebelsberg Castle Chamber Theatre. \n\n \n\nThe drama is based on the diary ‘Our Life Path’ by Sarolta Botka\, wife of Kuno von Klebelsberg. Through her perspective\, the audience can get a glimpse into the daily life of this exceptional politician and his love and marriage\, revealing a tableau of the 20th century’s dramas—from the fall of the Monarchy and Trianon\, through the two world wars\, to communist deportation. Sarolta’s viewpoint illuminates Klebelsberg’s human character and achievements\, while her post-WWII ordeals as a widow highlight the paradoxical cruelty of communism. \nFollowing her successful drama Ilona Zrinyi\, Mária Hedry brings this tumultuous life to the stage: Klebelsberg’s figure and his era’s contradictions take center stage through Sarolta’s lonely fate. The play draws on scholarly research—including works by Gábor Ujvári\, István Bethlen\, and Ignác Romsics—alongside contemporary sources\, enriched by the author’s imagination. \nCount Kuno von Klebelsberg (1875–1932) was a defining cultural politician of interwar Hungary. As Minister of Religion and Public Education (1922–1931)\, he implemented reforms to address Trianon losses: building thousands of rural schools\, modernising universities\, promoting folk education\, and founding overseas cultural institutes (Collegium Hungaricum) for national survival. \nThe 80-minute\, one-act performance will be performed in Hungarian with English subtitles. \n\n\nCast: \n\nSarolta: Edit Majzik\nEmma\, Márta\, Hubayné\, Róza\, peasant woman: Delinke Gajdó\nSzentgyörgyi\, doctor\, German officer\, Russian officer\, Hungarian comrade: Attila Petneházy\n\nSet\, costumes: Katalin Libor\nDirector: Attila Petneházy

SUMMARY:The Pitchfork Disney
DESCRIPTION:“You know why the ghost train is so popular? Because there are no ghosts. Once you’ve learnt that you can make a fortune.”\nTen years ago something terrible happened to Presley and Haley. Since then they’ve lived alone in their dead parents’ house\, doors bolted against the terrors of the world. But\, one night\, Presley sees a beautiful stranger on the street outside. And while his sister sleeps… he invites in their worst nightmare. \nDarkly comic and deeply unsettling\, Philip Ridley’s seminal masterpiece single-handedly changed the course of British drama. Its exploration of ‘a climate of fear’\, living in ‘alternate worlds’\, and persistent thrum of sexual anxiety has continued to act as a tuning fork for the zeitgeist. It is a play whose relevance is forever in the now. \nLidless Theatre has a long-standing collaboration with Philip Ridley and is now set to return with a landmark production—his first-ever play\, The Pitchfork Disney. One of Ridley’s most celebrated and influential works\, this production marks a major moment in their partnership. \nFresh from two sell-out\, ★★★★★ runs at Park Theatre\, including Leaves of Glass\, which broke Park90’s box office records\, Lidless Theatre continues to champion Ridley’s groundbreaking storytelling on stage. \nPost-Show Q&A with writer Philip Ridley on 8 & 22 Sept \nActors Workshop with Philip Ridley on 16 Sept & 23 Sept

SUMMARY:Presentation of Rubén Sánchez’s film La verbena in SOHO ST ( LONDON)
DESCRIPTION:The film director reveals his favourite London place that has been the inspiration for his next production ‘A tu vera’.\nAlexandra Harlow – 1 Jun 2025. \nThe production is an aesthetic\, narrative and conceptual bet that focuses on the reunion of Alex and Marc\, marked by two events that impact both characters. On the one hand\, Gabriel D’Almeida plays Alex\, a young man who is about to become a father and who struggles with the acceptance of his homosexuality. On the other hand\, Robin Reese gives life to Marc\, his best friend\, who brings with him news that they both must come to terms with. Throughout the film\, the characters evolve\, revealing their secrets to accept themselves… \nThe director of Furias\, Rubén Sánchez\, has finished shooting his new project\, the medium-length film “La Verbena”. The story stars Alex\, played by Gabriel D’Almeida\, who also starred in the 2019 film “Matthias & Maxime\,” directed by Xavier Dolan\, and Marc (Robin Reese). It is also produced by Carla Sanchez\, who makes her feature film debut with a plot that addresses LGBTQ+ issues. \nOne summer night in Barcelona\, Alex and his girlfriend Anna (Aida Quintana) organize a reunion with a group of friends at a festival. Marc unexpectedly returns from London at that time to meet Alex\, an old friend of his in England. However\, as the story unfolds in seventeen precise minutes\, it is discovered that Anna is pregnant\, which provokes a mixed reaction of jealousy and joy in the British actor. But what Alex’s girlfriend doesn’t know is that Marc and the father of her future child are more than friends\, and that during their stay in London they had a secret relationship. This unconfessed homosexuality of Gabriel D’Almeida’s character creates in the viewer a sense of uncertainty about his future\, as he is about to become a father and start a family. Everything will change for the character when it is revealed that Marc is HIV positive\, and that he is about to become a father and start a family. \n  \nLa Verbena is an immersive story that tests the relationships between the characters\, revealing in depth the hidden secrets of each cast member in a short space. This party is not only a time to get together with friends\, focused on having a good time\, celebrating reunion and making new friendships\, but also the means through which closeness becomes a space for revelations that can change each one’s destiny: from Anna’s pregnancy to Marc’s jealousy and the subsequent revelation of the Brit’s HIV\, to Alex’s fear and ignorance. \nBut not only that: through this brief encounter between acquaintances\, Rubén Sánchez seeks to capture and convey the idea of the stigma that weighs on people with HIV\, a secret that often generates great rejection among people\, regardless of their condition. He also explores themes such as the protagonist’s undisclosed marital status\, homosexuality and how words can change a person’s life forever. “I think cinema can change our perspective on many things\,” the director told the press. \n

SUMMARY:Lay Down Your Burdens by Rhiannon Faith Company
DESCRIPTION:Choreographer and theatremaker Rhiannon Faith would like to invite you to step into an evening at the local pub\, but a night at the local like no other. Here you can explore the beauty of humanity and the eternal need for community and compassion\, take the weight off and help each other lighten the load and restore our weary souls. \n\n\n\nCo-commissioned by the Barbican\, London and Harlow Playhouse\, Lay Down Your Burdens is a radically tender dance theatre show that invites you into the pub to explore the beauty of humanity… \n\n\n\nTitled Lay Down Your Burdens\, the 120-minute (inc interval) show is set in a rundown but friendly and welcoming British pub\, hosted by charismatic landlady Sara who welcomes the same regulars each night\, listening to their stories and woes and serving them the same drinks. Until\, one day\, a stranger with an excess of baggage gets blown in from the cold… \n\n\n\nThe show is set on a thrust stage with the audience on three sides as guests in the pub. We meet the regulars and hear their stories as they come in and take their usual seats. In this friendly setting\, the guests (audience) are encouraged to join the conversations that go around the bar. With radical tenderness\, humour and intoxicating behaviour we can ultimately restore our weary souls\, rediscover what has been lost and lay down our collective weariness\, however tuneful that may be. \n\n\n\nInspired by the Bob Dylan song Lay Down Your Weary Tune\, music is a key element of the work. The pub setting features an original score by John Victor (of London band Ghengahr) played by live string section\, and the voices of the audience are recorded\, through unstructured and structured tasks and supported testimonials. The result is a collective weary tune\, edited live\, bespoke to each performance and place and played as the final moment of the show. \n\n\n\nWith extraordinary physical performance\, live music\, dubious karaoke and riotous pub games\, this visceral dance theatre world draws together those who have been estranged or never even dreamed they were connected. \n\n\n\nThe world premiere performances of this exciting and vital new work will be at The Pit\, Barbican 21 to 25 November 2023. \n\n\n\nRhiannon Faith explained ‘With Lay Down Your Burdens we’re seeking to create a vital sense of community for audiences and participants and to build a platform for compassion and connection. Ultimately inviting all members of the community to a place where they belong\, where they feel seen\, and where they can experience joy and togetherness\, forging happier and healthier communities by providing a catalyst for positive social change.’ \n\n\n\nIn The Guardian\, Lyndsey Winship described Rhiannon as ‘one of the few UK artists making dance theatre that is pointedly socially conscious’ . \n\n\n\nLay Down Your Burdens was grown out of conversations with communities and developed from real-life experiences of the company\, who works with psychologist Joy Griffiths to develop responses to burdens that are caring\, creative and therapeutic. The show shines a light on individual suffering and discusses personal grief and serious illness. Suitable for over 16s\, it contains strong language and scenes that some may find upsetting. \n\n\n\nIt is performed and devised by a cast of six intergenerational performers (Shelley Eva Haden\, Donald Hutera\, Dominic Coffey\, Sam Ford\, Sara Turner\, Finetta Sidgwick) and two musicians\, (India Merrett\, Anna Clock). \n\n\n\nThe company have recently become the first UK company to be invited to perform at the Wuzhen Theatre Festival in China. They will take their previous show DROWNTOWN to the annual event\, considered one of the premier festivals in China and Asia\, for three performances 23 – 25 October. \n\n\n\nRhiannon Faith Company makes radically tender dance theatre\, working nationally on big stages and locally with communities on the margins\, always with social change and care at its heart. Based in Harlow\, Essex\, with nationwide impact\, they are making bold\, ambitious moves to secure a future as global leaders in original dance theatre with a social purpose\, to champion community transformation and authentic belonging for all. The company returns to the Barbican following its poignant and critically acclaimed live and digital productions Smack That (a conversation) (2018) and Drowntown Lockdown (2020). \n\n\n\nRhiannon Faith Company has been nominated for five National Dance Awards; ‘Best Independent Company’ 2021\, 2022\, 2023\, ‘Best Digital Choreography’ 2021 (DROWNTOWN LOCKDOWN)\, ‘Best Dance Film’ 2022 (DROWNTOWN live film). In addition\, Rhiannon Faith was nominated for an AWA Women In Dance Leadership Award 2022. The company is an Associate Artist at Harlow Playhouse and an Arts Council England National Portfolio Organisation. https://www.rhiannonfaith.com/

SUMMARY:The Good Women
DESCRIPTION:After its successful run at VAULT Festival\, “The Good Women” comes to Greenwich Theatre. \n\n\n\nWelcome to 1960s Zürich. While elsewhere\, hippies are celebrating free love and The Beatles and Janis Joplin are rising to fame\, Swiss women still don’t even have the vote. \n\n\n\nBette – the host of a regional TV cooking show – and Trudy – a housewife with a mild alcohol problem – are about to change that – and question their life choices\, their politics\, their sexualities\, and what it means to be a “good woman” in the process. \n\n\n\nYou’ll laugh\, you’ll cry\, and you’ll meet two extraordinary women. \n\n\n\nPRAISE FOR “THE GOOD WOMEN”: \n\n\n\n“The poignant two-hander depicts burgeoning love against a backdrop of political struggle. Simply staged\, the romcom plot balances witty humour\, social injustice & emancipation.” – Fringe Biscuit \n\n\n\n“This thoughtful glimpse into the difficulties faced by women in the 1960s is gently uplifting” – The British Theatre Guide.

SUMMARY:Right Of Way @ VAULT Festival
DESCRIPTION:‘I don’t remember where I am when I decide to walk. Maybe the idea creeps up on me over time – born somewhere within me the first time I saw the sea. \n\n\n\nLike osmosis\, the thought it soaks into my skin and lies in wait until I cry it out as a single teardrop. Glistening\, shimmering\, and whole – it falls out of my subconscious and into my knowledge. \n\n\n\nThe know\, the knowing\, that I need to walk.’ \n\n\n\nRIGHT OF WAY is a response to writer Beth Bowden’s experience of becoming a Young Carer. It follows a young woman walking the South West Coast path\, documenting her journey of 100+ miles in the face of grief & exhaustion. It is a reflection on bodies\, chronic illness\, loss and joy. Using innovative multimedia projection and exploring natural materials and movement\, this new play aims to kickstart conversations about disability and chronic illness. \n\n\n\nDATES \n\n\n\n21st – 24th February\, 20:00 \n\n\n\n25th – 26th February\, 19:30 \n\n\n\n26th February\, 16:40 \n\n\n\nLOCATION \n\n\n\nThe Cage\, The Vaults\, Leake Street\, London SE1 7NN \n\n\n\nTICKETS \n\n\n\nTickets available from £13.50 via https://vaultfestival.com/performances/right-of-way/

SUMMARY:Compositor E
DESCRIPTION:It is 1623\, and 17-year old John has come to London to work as an apprentice typesetter\, under the mentorship of printer Isaac Jaggard. But while he’s desperate to develop his craft\, it’s becoming apparent that John is suffering from some kind of trauma. And with a potentially game-changing new commission on his hands\, Isaac does not have time for emotions. \nHaving persuaded Isaac to let him progress to setting from a confusing manuscript of ‘Macbeth’\, John’s trauma begins to spill out onto the print shop floor. Why were those men so scared of his mother? And why are these children scurrying around with sheets of drying ink called… ‘devils’? \nA play about the hidden fingerprints of history – produced in conjunction with the 400th anniversary of the publication of the First Folio – that asks who the storytellers really are.

SUMMARY:Grey Area
DESCRIPTION:Where does the line between self-care and egotism lie in relationships? An intimate semi-autobiographical performance highlighting the effects of unaddressed mental health in relationships\, told through the lens of deconstructed\, fragmented memories. \n\n\n\nA non-linear investigation of the complexities and nuances of relationships and the moral boundaries we set: highlighting the different dynamics in LGBTQIA+ relationships while exploring what makes love (and the suffering it causes) a universal experience. \n\n\n\n“Grey Area” takes its space on stage earnestly and honestly in response to two contemporary issues: homobitransphobia and ableism. How can a journey of queer love be completely redefined by pain and understanding?

SUMMARY:The Good Women
DESCRIPTION:After it’s successful run at VAULT Festival\, “The Good Women” transfers to Greenwich Theatre. A funny\, bold and thought-provoking piece of queer theatre inspired by a true queer story.   \n\n\n\nIt’s the 1960s and the world is changing: Protesters take the street for equality and against the Vietnam war\, hippies celebrate free love and a young band called “The Beatles” is rising to fame. Not in conservative Switzerland\, where women did not get the vote until 1971. \n\n\n\nBette\, star of a popular TV cooking show\, and Trudy\, a housewife in an unhappy marriage\, are about to change that. \n\n\n\nPraise for “The Good Women”  \n\n\n\n“This thoughtful glimpse into the difficulties faced by women in the 1960s is gently uplifting” – The British Theatre Guide
