Have you ever seen someone buried alive in makeup?
You can see this man has scars. But they’re so far below the top layer, it would take an industrial sandblaster to even them out. And it’s easier to trowel on a few more inches of concealer.
Psychodermabrasion is a red raw tragicomedy about damage done beneath the skin. Live action fuses with recorded sound and projected image to create an offbeat musical monologue. Honest, audacious and bleakly comic, this is a show for anyone who looks in the mirror and can’t.
The eagerly-anticipated début from actor and musician Matthew Floyd Jones(Frisky & Mannish), in association with cult performance artist Dickie Beau.

A lively show full of fun, feathers, laughter and excitement and features original music and lots of audience participation!
The friendly bus driver leaves us with one simple instruction: “Don’t let the pigeon drive the bus!” However, the Pigeon is very clever and whines, bribes, pleads and even sings a song to get his own way… BUT WILL YOU LET HIM DRIVE?
Recommended for ages 3 and above.

Birdy is a moving story of friendship and family, dreams and survival, exploring the effects of war, notions of sanity and one man’s obsession with birds.
Inspired by the William Wharton novel, we are introduced to Birdy – confined in a World War II military psychiatric hospital, locked in silence and trapped in a bird persona. Led by his childhood friend and fellow casualty of war Al, we journey back through their early years as we relive their memories.
As Al and Birdy leave for battle, their lives are changed forever, but who or what represents true sanity? The world we live in or those who question its reality and reason.
A highly visual experience, the performance is intensified by powerful live music and song. Physicality and dynamic circus skills are used to convey a sense of otherworldliness.
Need advice about what computer, laptop or tablet to buy?
Still grappling with how to use the one you have already?
Or just fancy coming along and having a play?
COFFEE & COMPUTERS IS FOR YOU
We hold informal one-to-one computer familiarisation sessions over a cup of coffee on the last Friday of the month.
No need to bring anything, just yourself.
“The computer has given me a new life” says 69 year old Coffee & Computers visitor. And the Government has just announced a major new initiative to get everyone over the age of 55 on to the Internet.
So if you are over 55 (or thereabouts) and the very mention of computers bring you out in a cold sweat, call Stuart on 020 8347 2411 or email kirstenhs2012@gmail.com (quoting Coffee & Computers) and give us an idea of what you want to know more about.
Or just come along for the coffee and have a dabble.
You’ll soon wonder how you ever lived without being wired!
We look forward to seeing you

Sex, love and violence in black, pink and turquoise.
A twisted, mystical tribe have gathered in a black fortress. As music, specially composed for the performance, takes over and the family reunion goes awry, the end result is shattered minds and damaged bodies. But who are these people? What do they need? It is universal. It is globally wanted.
The iron cube on the stage is a small mansion, a family home for the strange characters, and it fills with vulnerability and violence. Globally Wanted is a performance of absurd happenings told through circus, acrobatics, parkour, physical theatre and an ingenious design. It pulls the audience so deep into the performance that it is rarely experienced.
Finnish company, Company Uusi Maailma performs for the very first time in London with the UK premiere of Globally Wanted.
”Globally Wanted is a blackish burlesque belch straight at your face. – I have no idea what this could be compared to. Not to anything. Scary, and at the same time pleasurably filling the senses.”
– Helsingin Sanomat, Finland’s leading newspaper
Globally Wanted shows at Jackson’s Lane has been carried out with the support of Finnish Circus Information Centre.
