Featured Events
The Beekeeper of Aleppo
Nuri is a beekeeper; his wife, Afra, an artist. They live a simple life, rich in family and friends, in the beautiful Syrian city of Aleppo – until the unthinkable happens. When all they care for is destroyed by war, they are forced to escape. This compassionate and beautiful play is a story of connection – between friends, families and strangers.
Alistair McGowan ‘3-in-1’
Alistair brings you the comedy and impressions for which he is known and loved, plays short piano pieces by Debussy, Glass, Amy Beach, Shostakovich, Mompou, Madeleine Dring and others and reads from his two recently-published poetry collections. Expect beautiful music, poignant poems and spot-on mimicry. It’s three great shows in one!
