SONGS FOR A NEW WORLD
Following a brief five-star run in Southend last year, cult musical SONGS FOR A NEW WORLD comes to Upstairs at the Gatehouse this February for a strictly limited run.
The debut song-cycle from Tony Award® winner Jason Robert Brown (The Last Five Years, Parade, Bridges of Madison County), SONGS FOR A NEW WORLD is an anthology of short stories told through song that takes audiences on a journey, teetering on the edge of one moment that can shape the rest of your life.
Featuring Musical Theatre fan favourites including ‘I’m Not Afraid of Anything’, ‘Stars and the Moon’ and ‘King of the World’, this production of SONGS FOR A NEW WORLD creatively explores the human condition from vastly different New World perspectives, from the deck of a 15th century ship to the window ledge of a modern day high-rise in Manhattan.

The spirit of rebellion lives on in the anarchic figurative and abstract oil on canvas works of Philip Diggle. In his own words ‘art that is political, erotic, abstract, exposed and does something other than sit and entertain in a museum. I am for an art that embroils itself with every day and comes out on top’.
Philip Diggle: Bringing It All Back Home
9-22 February 2024
Exhibition times:
Wed – Fri: 13.00 – 17.00
Saturday: 11.00 – 16.00
Sunday 11.00 – 17.00
Bringing It All Back Home references Bob Dylan and the voice of poetry, protest and politics that
characterised a period of artistic blossoming in New York and elsewhere in the 1960’s, including Diggle’s
own home town of Manchester where he was involved in the punk scene of the 1970’s and 1980’s.
The spirit of rebellion lives on in this anarchic show of figurative and abstract work. Diggle is, in his own
words, “…for an art that is political, erotic, abstract, exposed – and does something other than sit and entertain
…in a museum. I am for an art that embroils itself with everyday and comes out on top”.
Diggle references Sartre, Baudelaire and Wittgenstein: “…climbing Wittgenstein’s metaphorical ladder
of knowledge…I needed to jump from the it’s last rung – without a net or anything like argument – so
that the world could be correctly understood – painted and given some form of impression of penetrating
the essence of things.”
He cites the recent Soutine/Kossoff show at Hastings Contemporary as one which excited him. Many of his
own oil paintings have heavily encrusted and worked-on surfaces, “enlivened by a constant play of
oppositions, each an abstract drama of visual events, a material metaphor for the invisible dynamics of the
world it reflects” (Mel Gooding, art critic). Jackson Pollock is also a key influence, especially the large
New York canvases. Pollock’s phrase “I am nature” resonates in this show.
Philip Diggle has lived in Highgate for over 30 years and this is his 8th show at Highgate Gallery. He is a
regular contributor to the Royal Academy annual exhibition and has also exhibited in Berlin, Paris,
Barcelona and New York. His work is held in collections at Chase Manhattan Bank and the Rockefeller
Center in New York, at Caius College Cambridge and in many boardrooms and private collections.
There will be works on paper for sale as well as canvases.
Internationally acclaimed circus and dance performers, Nikki Rummer and JD Broussé, use hand-to-hand circus skills to tell the tale of an impossible choice: How can we be honest with ourselves without hurting those we love? Knot is a finely crafted theatrical journey through the struggles of commitment.
Knot is a modern affair told with delicate sensitivity through breath-taking acrobatics and heart wrenching dance.
Knot is co-commissioned and supported by Jacksons Lane, Déda, Jerwood Choreographic Research Project II, The National Centre for Circus Arts, Arts Council England and Warwick Arts Centre.

Do you know what happens when female acrobats hit middle age? still hungry don’t know either, but they’re trying to figure it out.
Part circus show, part training session, part trip-down-memory lane, Show Pony takes a hard look at life onstage and the gut-wrenching moment when the stage no longer wants you.
Packed with love, laughter and lunacy, Show Pony is a joyful scream that challenges sexism and ageism, on and off stage.

Inspired by the Cosmos Archeology project at EPFL, Space Junk tells the story of a space suit pushed out into space on an ephemeral orbit of the earth with a radio transmitter, known as SuitSat. A friendship is formed between a life-sized puppeteered space suit and a human, embodied by a dance and aerial artist.
With over 100 million pieces of space junk orbiting the planet, Space Junk is a tale of love, loss, new frontiers, the destructive power of human carelessness and our constructive capacity for hope and compassion.
Please be aware that this a work in progress performance.
