Flower-Face (Math fab Mathonwy)

A mother's curse, a father's love, and one of the three great enchantments of the Island of Britain. This beautiful, tangled story leads from sunlight to darkness, through love and betrayal, conflict and retribution, shape-shifting and wild magic as we meet shoes made of seaweed, ships made of shadows, a master of disguise and one of the greatest spells ever cast, to right a wrong and secure a dynasty. But does it succeed?

Run time: 1 hour. 

Suggested age: 12+

Some adult themes.

Kukolka

An old woman sits under a wide sky, remembering.

A young woman steps into a dark forest. Behind her, the world is burning. Ahead, she faces darkness, hunger and death.

She will have to survive with what she can find - and the gift she carries with her.

But will that be enough?

Kukolka is a weaving of traditional Slavic wonder tales with 20th century historical narrative, raising questions of morality, resilience and the nature of Home.

Run time: 90 minutes (2x 45 with interval)  or 60 minutes.

Suggested age: 14+

Adult themes.

The Wounded King: with Katy Cawkwell and Lisa Schneidau

What does it feel like to live under siege?

How do we find hope, when the land around us is dying?

Where do we find the heart to live, to endure, these difficult times?

 

Arthurian tales are part of our nation’s mythos. Like all good stories, they ask us questions…and, if we know where to look, can maybe provide answers. They are rich and timeless, and as relevant now as ever they were. Three tellers bring together fragments of these stories, woven together with song, hope and humanity.

Run time: 90 minutes.

Suggested age: 12+

Run time: 90 minutes with interval

Running with Scissors! new show booking 2026-7

Running with scissors is a one-woman show that slices into the high stakes world of women surgeons: where precision is everything, authority is questioned, and one wrong move can change a life. From history to present day, the theatre of war to the NHS, Running with scissors exposes the blood, bone and bravery behind the mask. Told by an NHS surgeon turned storyteller, this is a show about hands that heal, systems that wound, and women who refuse to be careful. 

Run time 60 minutes.

Suitable for 14+: some graphic descriptions of wartime surgery.
