On roller-skates and in the air, two women revisit the interweaving stories of their past lives and loves – from the post-war optimism of the late 1940s to the domestic realities of the 1950s and beyond.
Bella Kinetica’s circus theatre show has physical feats that will take your breath away as they skate, spin and fly across the stage.
Featuring the recorded experiences of real women and with a fabulous soundtrack of 40s and 50s music; Life on Wheels is a gentle, moving look back in time.

Make sure you keep the evening (from 7pm to 11pm) of 11th February free in the your diaries for our amazing Barn Dance/Ceilidh hosted by the equally amazing Central London Outdoor Group – a not-for-profit group run for members by members – see our website: Central London Outdoor Group.
A top live barn dance band (3 musician plus caller) band will be performing at this special event – The Wraggle Taggle Band. http://www.wraggletaggle.com/.
Never been to a barn dance before? No problem – the caller will teach you everything you need to know.
The barn dance will be at a fab venue in Highgate with plenty of space for dancing, good acoustics and a separate lounge for when you want to sit out a dance but still watch the action. We also get the use of a kitchen for food, drinks and snacks. You can bring food and drink to share (like we do at picnics).
Ticket sales will be opening in January. Tickets will be priced at the ridiculously low price of £13 per head (or £12 per head for members of the Central London Outdoor Group).
How to buy tickets? See: http://www.clog.org.uk/p/barn-dance.html
The total number of tickets will be capped at 70 to ensure there is plenty of space for dancing.
Free and open to all but do phone to book your place. In these lively debates, prominent and informed speakers argue their points of view on issues of current importance. They are ‘seconded’ by pupils from local schools, and audience members also have the opportunity to sway the opinion of those attending.
