NEW STUFF
Our monthly night of rehearsed readings. Join us for the opportunity to see exciting new work and engage in conversation with other writers, creatives, and theatre-goers.
We are excited to be hosting additional afternoon sessions at 1.45pm in October and December. Each event is ticketed separately, so please ensure you check which reading you are attending.
Coming Up: Sunday 5 October - 1.45pm
SET4LIFE
by James Robinson
Set4Life is a comic drama that explores the collapse of traditional work and the rise of fake gurus and grifters in its place, told through the eyes of Paula, a charismatic hustler caught in the pyramid-shaped web of 'The Success Network'.
When the dream she's sold doesn't live up to the reality, Paula spirals from motivational speaker to reluctant whistleblower. But breaking free and reinventing herself means confronting a system where modern-day cult dynamics are disguised as entrepreneurial spirit.

MOTOPIA
by Morwenna Brown
Once upon a time, there was a forest, where the sun and the wind and the people ran through the trees with free abandon. Welcome to Motopia! A musical choose-your-own-adventure story where a character's choices are placed in the audience's hands as they navigate their way through The Forest. Where will your choices lead you?
Tickets are £3 with an optional donation at checkout.
New Stuff finishes at approximately 4pm, but we welcome all to join us for continued conversations in the bar downstairs.
Tickets are strictly limited, so booking in advance is highly recommended. Please note that the event takes place in one of our studio spaces, which is only accessible up a spiral staircase.
