Get ready to dive into Neon Sun’s Roller Circus, a neon-soaked urban legend where street culture meets circus thrills in an explosion of energy, stunts, and 90s vibes perfect for all the family! This electrifying show fuses the grit of street performance with the spectacle of the circus, set to a slick Old Skool hip-hop mixtape soundtrack.
AND ALSO AT 2 PM EACH DAY
This exhibition is a celebration of the life and work of the painter, Joan Hodes. Born in Hampstead
in 1925, Joan studied first at the Slade School of Art, then Academy Julien in Paris and subsequently
as a pupil of Oskar Kokoschka, forging an art shaped by expressionism and a direct response to nature.
The exhibition at Highgate Gallery presents a range of her work to include oils as well as drawings,
pastels, and prints. It will allow visitors to see the development of her work from sketch through to
completed canvases and fully resolved watercolours. In addition, they will be able to view a variety
of her prints, including lino, etchings and dry points which show how even when working within a small
scale, through colour and line, she was able to create powerful and expressive images. For Joan, the
landscape with its changing weather and light, drawn from regular trips to Scotland, Wales, Ireland,
France, Italy and most recently Suffolk, was a re-occurring theme and the site for an immediate and
subjective response, full of energy and even rebellion.
Joan moved to Camden Town in the late eighties and subsequently to Hampstead where she lived for
over 30 years until her death in 2022. She regularly contributed to exhibitions at, amongst others,
the Mercury Gallery, Leicester Gallery, Ben Uri Gallery and the Royal Academy.
At a time when the work of women artists is being reassessed, an exhibition of Joan’s work is both
timely and important. There is a growing interest in her work which is already represented in numerous
private and public collections, including the British Museum, V&A and UCL Art Museum. Her archive is
held at the Women’s Art Library, Goldsmiths, University of London.

2026 marks 10 years since the death of the late, great Victoria Wood. So be amongst friends at “The most feel-good show in town” (Daily Mail) and join Paulus The Cabaret Geek (BBC1’s ‘All Together Now’) with Michael Roulston (Fascinating Aïda) on piano to celebrate her life.
Directed by the multi-award-winning Sarah-Louise Young (An Evening Without Kate Bush), Looking For Me Friend is filled with Victoria’s best-loved songs, including the iconic ‘Ballad of Barry & Freda’ (Let’s Do It) and the classic ‘It Would Never Have Worked’.
Ariella Green trained at St Martin’s School of Art, Goldsmiths College and Manchester Metropolitan University and has exhibited with the Crafts Council, 62 Group of Textile Artists and New Fibre Art group. She is a member of the Contemporary Applied Arts (CAA) Gallery in London.
Library of Moments – these works mark for Ariella key experiences in all their light and shade. Through her work she responds to these experiences, often working on, or ‘mending’ them within the collage. She perceives that Nature is key: a stage for us as humans on which to tell our story and to hold to in moments of doubt. Her imaginary animals explore mysteries and unknown feelings. The birds change their wings as they journey. They fly above and can see more than is clear to us below. Animals, figures, birds and nature are washed with colour they dance towards an alternate space where much is possible and doubt and hope can live together. Current realities can get woven in unexpected ways into this storytelling.
Collage technique is essential to her creativity and at the core of her practice. Her subject matter becomes clearer through the process of cutting and assembling – “I am often surprised at where my making takes me. Since my early training,I have worked mostly with Textile Collage. However, for this exhibition, I have incorporated papier collé, building on my own photographs and found materials and using screen-print and hand painting. This shift from sewing machine to scissors and glue allows me more directness and spontaneity in my making. Photographs give me particular access to memories and events, allowing me to tell a story of moments, that become alive in their telling.

“Electrifying physical performance”
— Broadway Baby
Step into the illicit glamour of The Moonlight Speakeasy – Neon Moon’s hidden world of prohibition-era decadence. Beneath the neon glow of a lavish 1920s dive bar (think Peaky Blinders meets The Great Gatsby), a heady night of mischief awaits.
Sip on ice-cold, artfully crafted cocktails as burlesque sirens bathe in martinis and retro-circus performers dazzle in a haze of smoke and scandal. This is a place where elegance meets excess, and nothing is quite what it seems.
Dressing up is more than encouraged—it’s essential. Channel your inner bohemian, Tokyo Queen, artist, or muse, and step into the spotlight for the most electrifying ‘Blind Tiger’ prohibition show in town.

“He juggles, he jokes, genius!” — Paul Whitehouse
There are jugglers. There are comedians. And then there is Jon Udry. Now he is bringing his unique and award-winning combination of juggling and comedy to a full length solo show.
Fresh from winning an award at the Brighton Fringe for the show, Jon will now be showcasing his charming, frank, funny and unique combination of tricks and jokes to audiences across the country.
Whether he is wowing the audience with his ability to juggle a dazzling number of clubs, rings or balls; amusing them with his mix of stripping and juggling; or captivating them with his ‘drops’ routine, Jon never fails to leave crowds in stitches, blending his technical mastery with comedic flair in a performance that is as unpredictable as it is unforgettable.
