Mark Thomas: Red Shed (work in progress) @ Jacksons Lane

Red Shed is the third part in a trilogy that started with the multi award winning shows Bravo Figaro and Cuckooed.

Mark returns to the place where he first started to perform in public, a red wooden shed in Wakefield, the Labour Club, to celebrate the club’s 50th birthday.

Interviewing old friends and comrades Mark pieces together the club’s history and works with the club to campaign with some of the poorest workers in the country for their rights.

It is the story of the battle for hope and the survival of a community in a small wooden shed.

It is part theatre, part stand up, part journalism, part activism and returns to Mark’s obsessions of community and struggle.

The show will involve the audience (in a nice way) to help recreate the shed and its inhabitants.

Children’s Theatre – The Enormous Turnip @ Lauderdale House
Oct 13 @ 10:30 am – 11:30 am

One Moment In Time Theatre present their own version of the classic folk tale The Enormous Turnip – but with a magical twist! We follow the tale of a young girl called Rosie who dreams of carving a special turnip lantern for the Festival of Light. To plant and harvest the turnip, Rosie will need plenty of help from the audience, her animal friends and one small but very important gnome! Little does Rosie know how absolutely enormous her turnip will grow!

“The show was completely magical and the puppetry exquisite. The children were hooked from the outset.”
– Samantha Lane, artistic director, Little Angel Theatre, London

Using beautiful puppetry and engaging story-telling, this performance captivates children’s attention as the action on stage unfolds. The Enormous Turnip is perfect for young children and fun for the whole family.

The Enormous Turnip takes place at Lauderdale House on 13 October, starting at 10:30am. Suitable for children aged 2 and up.
