SUMMARY:GenFest 2025: BIOSPHERE
DESCRIPTION:Four scientists. One year. Sealed away from the world in The Biosphere – an airtight dome; a great glass ark humming with natural life\, technology and ambition. Their mission: to prove life can survive beyond Earth. \nBut as the atmosphere of their meticulously crafted world begins to change\, passions fray and hunger bites\, and the line between experiment and existence blur. What will they sacrifice to succeed? \nInspired by the infamous 1991 experiment\, Olivia Foan’s BIOSPHERE is a new play about our relationship to nature\, technology and the planet we call home. \nBIOSPHERE is directed by Olivia Munk and produced by Part of the Main Productions. \nPrevious praise for THE TINKER\, written by Olivia Foan & directed by Olivia Munk at VAULT Festival 2023: \n\n“All the ingredients are in place for a spooky gothic affair\, and on the whole this piece from Part of the Main Productions is grandly successful… Olivia Munk keeps things moving at a suspenseful pace\, the threat of derailment always coiled in the air but never quite ruptured.” ???? LOST IN THEATRELAND \n“Foan has produced a fascinating script which explores the question of belief: confronting what you have chosen to believe in the past to make the present work and what you go on to believe in order to get the result that you desire\, no matter what the cost. The story ends with hope\, however the end alludes to the darker side of these decisions.”???? THE RECS \nShortlisted for Theatre Royal Haymarket/Masterclass Pitch Your Play competition 2020 and longlisted for Finborough Theatre’s ETPEP Award \n\nAccess Enhanced Performance \nAudio Described & Touch Tour\nThis performance will be Audio Described (Touch Tour begins at 6pm).

SUMMARY:Garth Marenghi: This Bursted Earth Book Tour
DESCRIPTION:“Horror author Nick Steen is having visions… A sinister Black Steeple; eerie lights in the sky that look like\na Catherine wheel but are not remotely a Catherine wheel… Plus a giant skeleton with a moustache. Are\nthey omens? Auguries? Portenderings of things to come? (Spoiler – yes\, they are). \nFor Nick Steen’s imagination is bursting out of his brain and threatening to burst in turn the entirety of Stalkford. \nCan Nick stop the aforesaid bursting? Or have things already slightly burst regardless? And will there ultimately be a grand finale to this three-book series (aka a trilogy) or a more open-ended conclusion in order to leave potential room for further sequels? (That\, btw\, will ultimately be Garth’s decision.) \nFrom the fevered imagination of Horror Fiction’s Grand Frightener Garth Marenghi\, author of Sunday Times-Bestselling Garth Marenghi’s Terror Tome and Garth Marenghi’s Incarcerat\, come\nthree freshly rancid tales of…This Bursted Earth… \n“So dense with brilliant jokes that it cannot safely be read while drinking hot liquid” – Inews.co.uk \n“puts the ‘boo’ into book tour” – The Guardian \n“had the crowd hooting and hanging\, insatiably\, on every line.” – The Telegraph \nHardback copies of This Bursted Earth will be available for purchase on the day. Be warned: signings\nare strictly time-limited. You’ll get no more than one minute with the world’s greatest\nFrighternerman\, Darkscribe\, Doomsage (plus Man-Shee) before you’re moved on and/or manhandled.

SUMMARY:Josh Widdicombe: Not My Cup Of Tea
DESCRIPTION:Josh Widdicombe is back on tour… not again! By now he has almost certainly mastered the art of stand-up\, either that or he has wasted the last 15 years of his life. Come along and decide for yourself. Expect it to be shorter and with lower production values than Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour\, but funnier and with more references to tea. \nJosh co-hosts the hugely popular podcast Parenting Hell with Rob Beckett\, which has somehow become so popular that they undertook a live arena tour in 2023 and released a book which topped the Sunday Times Bestseller Charts. He’s co-hosted in over 30 series of the multi-award-winning Channel 4 series The Last Leg\, is a team captain on Sky Max’s Rob Beckett’s Smart TV and co-hosts Sky’s Hold The Front Page. And he has an almost complete collection of Panini football sticker books.
