Darren McGarvey: Trauma Industrial Complex Live

Darren McGarvey: Trauma Industrial Complex Live

Orwell Prize-winning author and BAFTA-winning documentary maker Darren McGarvey presents an entertaining multi-media exploration of trauma, class, and the modern culture of oversharing. Blending comedy, spoken word, and social commentary, McGarvey offers a bold, compassionate and unflinching look at how personal pain becomes public performance — and what it really costs. Praised as “brilliant and thought-provoking” (Nicola Sturgeon) and “truly courageous, sincere, and difficult” (The Herald), the show will resonate with audiences interested in storytelling, wellbeing, and social change.

Out Of The Box

Out Of The Box

OUT OF THE BOX is a family-friendly circus comedy show, which sees an unlikely character and his box bring audiences together through joyful awe, never knowing what to expect next. With every opening of the box comes new trick shots, mini acts, and hilarious opportunities for participation – but don’t worry – Darryl only ever wants you to leave the stage feeling like the star of the show (there’s no ridicule here!). Delivered through, non-verbal clowning, ordinary objects become extraordinary in the hands of Darryl – and you won’t believe the reaction he gets from a toothbrush in the finale! The show is a joyous celebration of PLAY throughout your life, whatever your age, bringing generations together through seriously skilful silliness.

Lindisfarne

Lindisfarne

LINDISFARNE emerged from Tyneside in the 1970s and quickly carved out a unique place for themselves as one of British rock's most original bands. Their pioneering sound, combining acoustic instruments like mandolin and fiddle with their electric blues roots, proved the perfect medium to deliver the catchy, memorable songs provided by the band's resident writers Alan Hull and Rod Clements. Their first hit, the Clements penned Meet Me On The Corner, paved the way for their classic Fog On The Tyne to become the UK's top-selling album of 1972.
