Paperbelle
|
Paperbelle is a charming and magical new production for children and their families, told by one performer through storytelling, lighting and puppetry. Paperbelle’s world is blank and plain and she likes it that way. She’s heard of colour; but would prefer things to stay as they are – blank and plain. The colours, on the other hand, want to play games and they want Paperbelle to join in. Paperbelle’s world is changing and either she has to stop it all from happening or she has to learn to enjoy it…

Watch iT!' and 'Such a Bloke'
|
A dynamic double bill of dance solos performed by Tony Mills. Fusing breakdance, physical theatre, film and animation; ‘Watch iT!’ is a multimedia dance odyssey. A hit at the 2009 Fringe Festival, ‘Such a Bloke’ has been described as ‘essential viewing’. Choreographed by award winning Janis Claxton, this show offers an emotionally driven contrast into frustration and futility from a personal insight. Gripping and unpredictable, both pieces are an absolute must see. Suitable for ages 12+.

Dracula
|
In the spring of 1893 Jonathan Harker, a young English solicitor, visits Castle Dracula in Transylvania for what he believes to be a routine deal with the nobleman Count Dracula. Harker soon realises that he is not a visitor at all, instead a prisoner to the deadly Dracula, who sets off to find Mina, Harker’s finance, and her sister Lucy. The more Harker investigates his confinement, the more he fears his deadly captor. Can someone stop Dracula before he unleashes his supernatural powers on his first victim? In this tragic tale of power and redemptive love, the lines between the sane and the insane become dangerously vague.
