Calling all budding producers, writers, directors, performers, artists and indeed

workshops.
The sessions will be free to attend but you may be asked for a small donation

LIVE & ENCORE SCREENINGS
Small Island Sun 7th July 7.15pm
Andrea Levy’s Orange Prize-winning novel Small Island comes to life
in an epic new theatre adaptation. The play follows three intricately
connected stories. Hortense yearns for a new life away from rural Jamaica,
Gilbert dreams of becoming a lawyer and Queenie longs to escape her
Lincolnshire roots.
The Lehman Trilogy Thu 25th July 7pm
The story of a family and a company that changed the world, told in three
parts on a single evening. Academy Award-winner Sam Mendes (Skyfall,
The Ferryman) directs Simon Russell Beale, Adam Godley and Ben Miles
who play the Lehman Brothers, their sons and grandsons.
Measure for Measure Sun 11th Aug 7.15pm
When a young novice nun is compromised by a corrupt official, who offers
to save her brother from execution in return for sex, she has no idea where
to turn for help. When she threatens to expose him, he tells her that no
one would believe her. Shakespeare wrote this play in the early 1600s, yet
it remains astonishingly resonant today.
André Rieu: Maastricht Concert Sun 18th Aug 3pm & 7pm
This year André Rieu invites you to put on your dancing shoes for his

The majestic waltz has been such an inspiration to André throughout his

life.
