Death. A bit grim, isn’t it? Morbid, macabre, unmentionable. But does it have to be that way? Drawn together by their shared fear of death, thanatophobes Lucy Nicholls and Antonia Beck invite you to embark on a journey of discovery, contemplation and courage. Take time to celebrate your own mortality, laugh, cry, stick two fingers up at the grim reaper and discover why talking about death is ultimately life-affirming. This provocative and unashamedly honest commentary tries to help us understand our relationship with death and dying – and why we struggle to accept our own mortality.

A clever composer called Camille Saint-Saëns once wondered what animals would sound like as pieces of music – what would a growly lion or a skippy kangaroo, an aquarium of fish or a cuckooing cuckoo sound like if they were turned into music notes? Using the music that Camille Saint-Saëns composed, Drew Colby (in a collaboration with concert pianist Sarah Kershaw) takes the composer’s musings one step further and imagines what the animals would look like if they were created using just two hands and a light.
The Carnival of the Animals has captivated audiences young and old across the UK, and in Israel, Turkey and Germany since its premiere in Yorkshire in 2016. The much-loved music of Camille Saint-Saëns combines with the visual magic of Drew Colby’s hand shadows to create a spell-binding, hilarious and (in the words of the children at the preview performances) “amazing and mysterious” virtuoso performance.
The Carnival of Animals will take place at 10.30am on Saturday 9 March. Performances last approximately 45 minutes and are suitable for children aged 3+ and their families.

A daredevil, an illusionist and a juggling-computer-musical genius perform three nail-biting 30-minute shows in one exhilarating evening. BE FESTIVAL is Birmingham’s annual showcase of the finest, most innovative performance art from across Europe – each year, Best of BE FESTIVAL packages up the three top shows and takes them on the road. In Take Care of Yourself, Swiss daredevil and circus performer Marc Oosterhoff gives an edge-of-the-seat performance – literally – by attempting to perform a series of hair-raising stunts after working through a row of whiskey shots. Performance artist, illusionist and professional liar Tom Cassani questions our collective construction of truth and lies in Someone Loves You Drive With Care; and the funny, pulsating, almost perfectly controlled multimedia circus show Control Freak demonstrates Kulu Orr’s computer genius and desperate pursuit to control everything on stage.

Award-winning Proteus Theatre presents a highly physical re-imagining of Shakespeare’s Macbeth as a corporate thriller which explores the pressures faced by first-generation British-born children of immigrants, set against the background of the ‘greed is good’ corporate landscape of 1980s Britain.
