The Ingenious Gentleman Don Quixote of La Mancha @ Jacksons Lane
May 6 @ 8:00 pm – 9:30 pm

Inspired by Don Quixote’s wanderings, two feisty señoritas and a downtrodden Englishman embark on a journey through Spain taking on one of the most accomplished works of fiction ever written.

Accompanied only by an otherworldly virtuoso guitarist whose presence there makes no sense whatsoever, they will lead you to joy, pain and ultimate wisdom. A madcap rendition concluding with a common sentiment: “These guys did not read the book”.

Little Soldier presents a hilariously inventive adventure of immense proportions, to be taken with a pinch of salt and a handlebar moustache.

Keats, Love and Myth Understandings – John Hegley @ Jacksons Lane
Oct 30 @ 8:00 pm – 9:00 pm

A selection of verses on the above topics, devised as an adult show, but tolerable to some 10 year olds. Verses concerning Keats’s relationships with vegetables and surgery. A long look at love, both on, and off the buses and musings on the old chestnut of Orpheus’s disruptive turn around. Deep and daft. Come and Sing.

The Guy in the Luggage Rack @ Jacksons Lane
Sep 9 @ 7:30 pm – 8:30 pm

Daisy is doing her best to keep her chin up and her head down – but as the first anniversary of her mum’s death approaches she begins to realise grief isnʼt something she can put aside indefinitely, and whether she’s willing to admit it or not, things aren’t fine.

From the silly to the sublime to the scary to the ridiculous, Daisy wrestles (sometimes literally) with her grief – Ian, a 6-foot invisible bald guy with a lot of luggage – eventually discovering that by letting him into her world she is able to reconnect with the memory of her mother.

Combining physical comedy with striking aerial acrobatics and an original, constantly moving aerial set, the debut live show from She Said Jump draws on theatre clown, circus and puppetry to tackle the themes of grief and bereavement with a light and playful touch.

Suitable for ages 8+
