SUMMARY:Varna International Ballet 2025
DESCRIPTION:Raymond Gubbay presents Varna International Ballet\, returning for a new season in 2025\, with three classic ballets brought to life by magical special effects. \nPerformed by Varna International Ballet\nAccompanied by live orchestra the Varna International Ballet Orchestra \nSwan Lake\nTue 4 March 7.30pm \n \nThe greatest romantic ballet of all time is brought to life by Tchaikovsky’s haunting and unforgettable score. From the impressive splendour of the Palace ballroom to the moon-lit lake where swans glide in perfect formation\, this compelling tale of tragic romance has it all. From Odile\, the temptress in black tulle\, as she seduces the Prince by spinning with captivating precision to the spellbound purity of the swan queen Odette\, as she flutters with emotional intensity\, the dual role of Odette/Odile is one of ballet’s most unmissable technical challenges.

As snowflakes fall outside\, the warm glow of the open fire sends flickering shadows across the boughs of the Christmas tree and all the presents beneath. When midnight strikes we are swept away to a fairy-tale world where nothing is quite as it seems; toy dolls spring to life\, the Mouse-king and his mouse-army battle with the Nutcracker Prince and we travel through the Land of Snow to an enchanted place where the magic really begins…

SUMMARY:Levellers Collective: Spring 2025 Acoustic Tour
DESCRIPTION:After two highly acclaimed acoustic tours and albums in recent years\, the Levellers Collective bring their new tour to Northampton this March. \nThe Collective live shows\, and albums\, came about after the Levellers decided to do something a bit different with their extensive back catalogue in 2018. Together with members of fellow Brighton group The Moulettes\, they went on to record two albums radically reworking their songs – with producer John Leckie (We The Collective) and Sean Lakeman (Together All The Way). \nThe new acoustic arrangements of those Levellers songs\, old and new\, can now also be seen and heard on a new Live Album & DVD which was recorded in 2023 at London’s iconic Hackney Empire. The film captures the spirit of the Levellers as never seen before as multiple cameras were positioned onstage for the recording and the result is a truly privileged vantage point.

SUMMARY:Lemn Sissay
DESCRIPTION:Spend an evening with a master of the spoken word\, BAFTA nominated author\, activist\, performer and Sunday Times number one bestseller\, Lemn Sissay OBE as he takes to the stage with this brand-new show. \nEvery morning for 10 years Lemn has written four lines and shares them on his socials with no explanation and no title. After catching the public’s attention\, they have been transformed into murals\, quoted in books\, made into songs and even tattoos. He chose the best of them for Let the Light Pour In which became an instant Sunday Times Bestseller- and now a live show. \nWith live readings from his books\, Lemn will unravel some of the original stories behind the poems\, and how they have been used in people’s lives and his own. Expect the unexpected. A night bursting with light to stave off the dark. \nWith the unique chance to pepper Lemn with questions\, this thought-provoking and entertaining show on the power of creativity can’t be missed. An evening full of truth\, humour and hope\, Lemn will allow us into his morning poetry practice and show us all how he lets the light pour in. \nI will build an embassy \nIn your heart over time \nThere is a plot of land inside me \nBuild one in mine \nLemn will be signing books after the show. Copies of Let the Light Pour In (RRP £12.99) and additional bestselling titles will be available for purchase at each show.

SUMMARY:Mark Steel: The Leopard In My House
DESCRIPTION:Join multi-award-winning\, BAFTA-nominated writer and comedian Mark Steel for his new tour The Leopard In My House. The topic? His battle with throat cancer. A battle he is winning (thankfully) and which only his rapier wit could fashion a comedy tour show out of. Cancer has done nothing to dull Mark’s acute political observations or quash his “frankly bonkers” energy: you will laugh\, you will cry\, but you’ll laugh again\, and again\, and again. The Leopard In My House is proof that this leftie\, working-class\, Radio 4 favourite truly deserves his place in the UK comedy pantheon.
