Beta Testing @ Jacksons Lane
Apr 29 @ 8:00 pm – 9:30 pm

Beta Testing is a hotchpotch remix of juggling subculture and influences such as TED talks, The Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy and a fear of the haddock.

In what began life as a blog, set up after a late night conversation about circus, art and how to make the perfect pizza, Beta Testing looks at the intricacies and probability of juggling.

Sparks, Udry and Pang share theory, secrets and more than a few laughs as they take us through throwing, catching and dropping.

You can watch the trailer here and read a review of the show here.

The original hippy musical HAIR made its debut on the London stage in Autumn 1968.

Fifty years on, some of the original cast members get back together to talk about their experience of being in the very first rock musical.

Paul Nicholas, Annabel Leventon and Peter Straker have all gone on to be major stars in British theatre.

We are hoping that other cast members from HAIR will join Paul, Annabel and Peter.  Come and listen to them talk about that wonderful period of love and peace. Help us recreate the Age of Aquarius and Let The Sunshine In!

There will also be a few old film clips to remind everyone what a hippy happy time we enjoyed in the Swinging Sixties.
