Moominvalley in November @ Upstairs at the Gatehouse
A New Musical
 
It’s autumn in Moominvalley. Leaves are falling, rain has settled in. Six strangers arrive, each searching for something. Snufkin is looking for a melody. Fillyjonk longs for order. And Toft wants, more than anything, to meet the Moomins. 
 
But the house is empty. The valley is quiet. The Moomins have gone. 
 
Based on Tove Jansson’s final Moomin story, Moominvalley in November is a gentle, profound, and life-affirming meditation on grief, belonging, and quiet resilience. 
 
A co-production between Nummulite and Chromolume—the in-house company at Upstairs at the Gatehouse behind In ClayRoad Show, and Tom Lehrer Is Teaching Math and Doesn’t Want to Talk to YouMoominvalley in November was shortlisted for Mercury Musical Development’s BEAM 2025 showcase.

Adrian Hemming. The Shape of Memory @ Highgate Gallery
Nov 14 @ 10:00 am – 2:00 pm

Highgate Gallery in conjunction with The Wolf Collective is pleased to announce a solo exhibition by acclaimed British artist Adrian Hemming.
This exhibition brings together a significant body of work spanning Hemming’s decades-long career,
including oil paintings, prints, drawings, and watercolours.
Known for his meditative landscapes and luminous handling of colour, Hemming’s practice invites viewers
to reflect on how memory shapes perception—and how the land itself becomes a repository of both
personal and collective experience.


The Shape of Memory engages deeply with themes drawn from cultural history and philosophy.
Echoing Simon Schama’s Landscape and Memory, the exhibition explores landscape not merely
as a backdrop, but as a force through which identity, myth, and memory are forged. Hemming’s
work also resonates with both Nietzsche and Proust’s reflections on conscious remembering in the
body, where memory is not only stored in the mind but experienced viscerally—through rhythm,
sensation, and image.
As noted in the late Professor Denis Cosgrove’s essay on Hemming, his landscapes are “charged with the
geography of emotion,” operating between place and psyche. Hemming’s canvases often blur the boundary
between inner and outer worlds, rendering terrain that is at once real and remembered, abstract and intimate.
This exhibition offers a rare opportunity to engage with the full emotional and intellectual range of
Hemming’s work—a practice deeply rooted in the poetics of place and the subtle architectures of memory.

Adrian Hemming at Highgate Gallery opening times:

Friday 14 November: 13.00 – 17.00

Saturday 15  & Sunday 16 November: 10.00 – 16.00

Wednesday 19 – Friday 21 November: 13.00 – 17.00

Saturday 22  & Sunday 23 November: 10.00 – 16.00

sensation, and image.
As noted in the late Professor Denis Cosgrove’s essay on Hemming, his landscapes are “charged with the
geography of emotion,” operating between place and psyche. Hemming’s canvases often blur the boundary
between inner and outer worlds, rendering terrain that is at once real and remembered, abstract and intimate.
This exhibition offers a rare opportunity to engage with the full emotional and intellectual range of
Hemming’s work—a practice deeply rooted in the poetics of place and the subtle architectures of memory.

Moominvalley in November @ Upstairs at the Gatehouse
A New Musical
 
It’s autumn in Moominvalley. Leaves are falling, rain has settled in. Six strangers arrive, each searching for something. Snufkin is looking for a melody. Fillyjonk longs for order. And Toft wants, more than anything, to meet the Moomins. 
 
But the house is empty. The valley is quiet. The Moomins have gone. 
 
Based on Tove Jansson’s final Moomin story, Moominvalley in November is a gentle, profound, and life-affirming meditation on grief, belonging, and quiet resilience. 
 
A co-production between Nummulite and Chromolume—the in-house company at Upstairs at the Gatehouse behind In ClayRoad Show, and Tom Lehrer Is Teaching Math and Doesn’t Want to Talk to YouMoominvalley in November was shortlisted for Mercury Musical Development’s BEAM 2025 showcase.

Adrian Hemming. The Shape of Memory @ Highgate Gallery
Nov 16 @ 10:00 am – 2:00 pm

Highgate Gallery in conjunction with The Wolf Collective is pleased to announce a solo exhibition by acclaimed British artist Adrian Hemming.
This exhibition brings together a significant body of work spanning Hemming’s decades-long career,
including oil paintings, prints, drawings, and watercolours.
Known for his meditative landscapes and luminous handling of colour, Hemming’s practice invites viewers
to reflect on how memory shapes perception—and how the land itself becomes a repository of both
personal and collective experience.


The Shape of Memory engages deeply with themes drawn from cultural history and philosophy.
Echoing Simon Schama’s Landscape and Memory, the exhibition explores landscape not merely
as a backdrop, but as a force through which identity, myth, and memory are forged. Hemming’s
work also resonates with both Nietzsche and Proust’s reflections on conscious remembering in the
body, where memory is not only stored in the mind but experienced viscerally—through rhythm,
sensation, and image.
As noted in the late Professor Denis Cosgrove’s essay on Hemming, his landscapes are “charged with the
geography of emotion,” operating between place and psyche. Hemming’s canvases often blur the boundary
between inner and outer worlds, rendering terrain that is at once real and remembered, abstract and intimate.

Hauntings @ Upstairs at the Gatehouse
Nov 23 @ 8:00 pm – 10:00 pm
Hauntings @ Upstairs at the Gatehouse
With masterful storytelling from the award-winning actor Gerard Logan, Hauntings will transport you to a world of invisible, but terrifyingly present, spirits.
 
A spellbinding evening of three tales of the supernatural from two of the world’s greatest writers of ghost stories, E.F. Benson and M.R. James
From E.F. BENSON comes:
Naboth’s Vineyard’ – in which just deserts are meted out to an unscrupulous lawyer, 
&
The Hanging of Alfred Wadham’ – in which the forces of the devil test a man of faith to his limits. 
From the master of the ghost story genre, M.R. JAMES, comes: 
 ‘Oh, Whistle and I’ll Come to You, My Lad’ – in which a medieval spirit strikes terrorises an arrogant professor.

Performed by Gerard Logan
(Olivier Nominee & Winner of The Stage Newspaper’s ‘Best Solo Performer of the 2011 Edinburgh Festival)
Directed by Gareth Armstrong

Music by Simon Slater

 
Logan is astounding….He takes a strong script and flies it to the stars
 Edinburgh Festival 2016 Review – 5 STARS 
Watching Logan work is like being privy to a wonder of nature and remains with you … A true masterpiece of solo performance”

A Christmas Carol – As Told By Jacob Marley (Deceased)
Adapted and performed by James Hyland
Music by Chris Warner

 

WINNER: OFFCOMM COMMENDATION
Off West End Awards, 2023   

 

WINNER: BEST PERFORMER IN THEATRE
Fringe Report Awards, 2012

 

​NOMINATED: LONDON THEATRE AWARD
London Awards for Art and Performance, 2012

Told from the perspective of Scrooge’s deceased business partner, this multi award-winning stage adaptation has been hailed as the “definitive telling of A Christmas Carol” (Redditch Standard), and rated as one of “the top Christmas shows in London, Edinburgh and around the UK” (High 50 Culture). Recognised by Queen Elizabeth II for its part in Dickensian Scholarship, this “forcefully compelling masterpiece” (Manx Independent) delivers thrills, chills and excitement aplenty for all ages.

 

Jacob Marley is dead and condemned to an eternity of carrying a heavy chain, forged in life; a life to which he can no longer return except to recount the tale of his miserly business partner, Ebenezer Scrooge, and the path that lead to his redemption. Through Marley’s words, we learn how three magical spirits opened Scrooge’s eyes and made him realise the true value of love and forgiveness.

Told from the perspective of Scrooge’s deceased business partner, this multi award-winning stage adaptation has been hailed as the “definitive telling of A Christmas Carol” (Redditch Standard), and rated as one of “the top Christmas shows in London, Edinburgh and around the UK” (High 50 Culture). Recognised by Queen Elizabeth II for its part in Dickensian Scholarship, this “forcefully compelling masterpiece” (Manx Independent) delivers thrills, chills and excitement aplenty for all ages.

 

Jacob Marley is dead and condemned to an eternity of carrying a heavy chain, forged in life; a life to which he can no longer return except to recount the tale of his miserly business partner, Ebenezer Scrooge, and the path that lead to his redemption. Through Marley’s words, we learn how three magical spirits opened Scrooge’s eyes and made him realise the true value of love and forgiveness.
