Angela Barnes: Angst

Wed 29 Oct • 8pm • Admission £17 • Comedy

A brand new stand-up show from Angela Barnes, star of Mock The Week and Live at The Apollo.

Angela is a worrier. Whatever it is, she’ll worry about it. But don’t let that worry you – she’ll worry enough for the both of you.
This hilarious show has some stories of success and sound logic, but mostly features stories of unmitigated failure, a distinct lack of wisdom, a little bit of German and loads of jokes. Award winning comedian Angela’s last tour Hot Mess received critical acclaim and was filmed as a special available on ITVX. Angela has also appeared on Channel 4’s 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown, BBC’s House of Games and is a regular guest on Radio 4’s The News Quiz. Angela also co-hosts the popular comedy history podcast We Are History.

“She’s just a gloriously down-to-earth, straight talking and extremely funny comic” The Guardian

The Goosebumps of Delight

Thu 30 Oct • 7:30pm • Full £14 Concs £12 • Professional Theatre

Adapted by Gavin Robertson
Presented by Gavin Robertson & Nicholas Collett

A sequel to The Ghost of a Smile, and spookily apt between Halloween and Christmas, two (more) of Charles Dickens’ ghost stories, with a comic element- adapted from his original stories The Baron of Grogzwig – in which a downhearted Baron is visited by a sinister apparition, and The Goblins Who Stole A Sexton – the latter being Dickens’ own inspiration for what later became A Christmas Carol!
The themes of redemption and humility are all there – but funnier!

Physical theatre/storytelling… with a handy interval!

Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde

Wed 5 – Sat 8 Nov • 7:30pm • Full £12 Concs £10 • Professional Theatre

Adapted for the stage by Lottie Dance
Presented by WhimsiCo

“Man is not one, but truly two.”

WhimsiCo take a dive into the dark with their new adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson’s The Strange Case of Doctor Jekyll and Mr Hyde, combining psychedelic rock with classic gothic horror.

To all who know him, Gabriel Utterson is a good man, but when he must investigate a string of mysterious murders somehow connected to his friend Dr Jekyll, he finds that he must discover more about himself than pleasantries if he is to solve the strange case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde.

An electrifying new feminist take on the classic novel by the weird uncle of gothic horror, WhimsiCo’s Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde is set to be an exploration into what happens when personal loyalty takes over morality, and where the line between good and evil blurs.

Their lives converge and echo across time, watched over by an ancient Plane tree that has silently witnessed it all.

Michelle de Swarte is back with her entourage of trademark razor-sharp wit and no-holds-barred storytelling.

After the main event’s highs and lows, Michelle wonders what to do after the party. She’s heading to the afters for some brutally honest oversharing about life before social media, trying to scrape the barrel of youth, how to know when too much filler is too much, breaking down the cost difference of “party powder” to powdered greens, whether tarot card readers replace actual therapy and when is a good time to pregame perimenopause. Michelle is here to share all the fu@k ups, so you don’t have to.

Star and writer-creator of BBC’s critically acclaimed Spent, Michelle De Swarte has been seen on Sky/HBO’s The Baby, Amazon’s Backstage with Katherine Ryan and The Duchess on Netflix, as well as Live at the Apollo and Never Mind the Buzzcocks. Michelle was recently named one of Variety’s 10 Brits to Watch for 2025.
