Talks & Lectures

Field & Folk With post screening Q&A

Through the voices of farmers, historians, conservationists, and local people, the film reveals how centuries of working the land have shaped the hills, fields, and villages we see today. As the seasons turn, it explores the challenges facing rural life — from changing farming practices to environmental pressures — while celebrating those who are working to care for the land and keep its traditions alive. Join us after the screening for a Q&A (line-up TBC).

Fleetwood Mad - Dreams Tour

Fleetwood Mad are the sensational and exciting band recreating an authentic Fleetwood Mac experience. Created out of a passion for Fleetwood Mac and their music, Fleetwood Mad quickly secured their place as one of the "must see" Fleetwood Mac bands. With a huge flashback to the Peter Green era and all of the other big hits, (along with great visuals and costume changes of course). Fleetwood Mad take you on a 2-hour theatrical journey exploring the magic of Fleetwood Mac. Recent reviews include - “Wow absolutely blown away by the performance of Fleetwood Mad at The Drill in Lincoln. Stevie was sensational… she sounded just like her and had the same energy. All the band were excellent and I particularly loved the lone performance of Landslide just like Stevie, it was beautiful. Thank you so much and keep doing what you do.” Fleetwood Mad, the UK's ultimate Fleetwood Mac experience. Our professional five piece band brings the authentic Fleetwood Mac experience to life with our costume changes and renditions of the band's chart-topping hits. Website - www.fleetwoodmad.co.uk

Three Bad Men (1926) With live piano score by Meg Morley

A new series of silent-era classics arrives at The Pound Arts Centre, all accompanied by live piano score performed by BFI Southbank’s resident pianist Meg Morley. Since performing for her first silent film in 2016, Meg has quickly become one of the UK’s pre-eminent silent film accompanists, performing at various international film festivals and playing reguarly at the London Cinema Museum. In the 1870s, gold is discovered in the Dakota Territory, and wanted men Bull Stanley (Tom Santschi) and Mike Costigan (J. Farrell MacDonald) join thousands of other pioneers on a westward journey in search of wealth. Soon, Bull and Mike see a gang of thugs attacking Lee (Olive Borden), a young woman. They rescue her, but her father is killed during the assault, so Mike and Bull become her guardians. Before long, Bull and Mike leave their criminal pasts behind and devote themselves to Lee.
