Following a successful showcase at Theatre at The Tabard in 2024, The Crooked Billets brings Peter Mottley’s double bill of forgotten gems to Upstairs at The Gatehouse for a special two week run. Written in the 1980s, these thrilling one-handers use Shakespeare’s Henry V as a framework to explore themes of coming-of-age, class, PTSD, and the real human cost of war.
Before Nell is told through the eyes of a boy actor preparing to take the stage as Nell Quickly AKA Madame Pistol in the first ever production of Henry V. It presents a heart-breaking, darkly comic and meticulously researched insight into the hardships and social dynamics of the time.
After Agincourt is a visceral and brutal recounting of the English invasion of France in 1415. Set in The Boar’s Head Tavern seven years later, a drunk and bitter Pistol details the campaign of bloody battles in vivid modern vernacular at the same time tearing down the heroic picture of King Henry V we’re so familiar with.

How Margaret Thatcher first won and then lost the Conservative leadership.
The play concentrates on the personalities, rivalries and machinations involved in the leadership battles and does not set out to take a pro- or anti-Thatcher stance.
Mrs Thatcher blamed her loss of office on the deceitful treachery of Geoffrey Howe, the irresponsible ambition of Michael Heseltine, tawdry Cabinet disloyalty and contemptible backbench weakness. But was that the whole story?

Led by John Wilson’s star soloist Mark Crooks on sax and clarinet and the award-winning guitarist Nigel Price (as you’ve never heard him before!), with John Cervantes (piano), Marianne Windham (double bass) and Demi Garcia Sabat (drums/percussion).

SARAB “A mirage” is a 55-minute tragic theatre circus that was produced in 2017 to highlight the difficulties faced by refugees around the world. And the repetition of it today for millions of people.
“We are forced,
We had no other option.
Dragged to an uncertain end,
On a road full of obstacles and checkpoints that we could barely pass.
Our destiny unknown.
During the long and rough journey,
We kept dreaming of the moment we would arrive,
Continuing our path towards the unknown.
Finally,
We arrive.
Have we reached our goal?
After floating earth and oceans,
We discover the unexpected.
It really was nothing, but a mirage.”

Enjoy an evening on the Tea Lawn with one of the world’s leading harpists and award winning sax: ‘Ukraine meets West Africa’ an evening on the Tea Lawn.
Harpist Alina Bzhezhinska joins tenor saxophonist Tony Kofi in a duo that unites the music styles of the Ukraine and West Africa and celebrates the harmony between the harp and the saxophone.

Bzhezhinska is the creator of HipHarpCollective, who recently won the Parliamentary Jazz Award’s Best Ensemble of the Year 2024. The group’s double LP “Reflections” (BBE Music) won best album of the year 2023 by Preston Music and Alina Bzhezhinska’s Quartet was nominated for Best Live Act of the Year at JazzFM Awards 2017.
Tony Kofi is a multi award winning saxophonists, a recording career that has seen collaborations with Donald Byrd, Eddie Henderson, Abdullah Ibrahim and Ornette Coleman to name a few. Kofi’s solowork, in particular his 2020 album ‘A Different Kind Of Soul’ and his recently reissued ‘Plays Monk’ cement his reputation as one of the UK’s most accomplished saxophonists.
‘…Bzhezhinska shares with Alice (Coltrane) a mastery of the jazz harp.’ ★★★★★ The Times
‘There is so much respect in jazz circles for Tony Kofi.’ Jazzwise
