Sat 6th September at 8:00pm

The fast-rising boy/girl duo Blackheart is a unique crossbreed of folk, country and rock. Powerful melodies driven by smartly crafted lyrics that talk of love, marriage, life, death, redundancy, suicide and damn near everything in between - Blackheart is all this plus sublime voices, jaw-dropping guitar wizardry and two wicked senses of humour. Not to be missed.

A vision of the 80's urban nightlife.

It's Friday night, it's disco night - time for Bouncers to come alive!

Judd, Ralph, Les and Lucky Eric invite you for a night on the town in this hilarious and outrageous look back at the 80's nightclub scene.

Amidst tatty glamour and flashing lights we meet the smooth talking DJ; the lager swilling lads; the lip-sticked, laquered girls and many more gyrating to the pulsating beat of the dance floor.

And so begins the journey into Friday night under the ever watchful, ever ready, ever observant...... BOUNCERS.

Bouncers was voted by the National Theatre as one of the greatest plays of the 20th century.

Fri 19th September to Sat 20th September at 8:00pm

The Slide Show returns to the Rondo after a sell-out appearance in 2004.

In a small hall somewhere in England, a slide show begins, presented by an enthusiastic husband and wife team. But their innocent dabbling accidentally unleashes a potent ancient force - a force with many enemies...

Visual and comic theatre at its very best - erotic soundscapes, twisted puppet gods and a brand new high-speed art form - on wheels.
