Feel the Flow –Lisa Timmerman
We are delighted to welcome Lisa Timmerman, who returns, after 10 years, to 78 Derngate to display her evocative work in our newly refurbished galleries for her 5th solo exhibition: ‘Flow’.
For Lisa, the journey to this exhibition began in Burma Myanmar in 2016 and flowed through to a quote by Kabul Gibron: ‘Beauty is not in the face, beauty is a light in the heart.’ Since 2019 she has been working with oil, cold wax and other painting techniques, experimenting with ways to give the viewer their own lift and ‘light in the heart’ moment.
Enjoy the moving tranquillity of these paintings and reflect on the thoughts behind them at Lisa Timmermanâ€™s exhibition entitled â€œFlowâ€�. It runs from Wednesday April 3rd to June 29th in our Barwell Room and Mezzanine Galleries, open 10 am â€“ 4.30 pm (closed Mondays). Free entry to exhibitions, all work for sale. Why not take the perfect opportunity and combine a visit to the exhibition together with a trip round the adjacent Charles Rennie Mackintosh House (for which there is an entry fee) gardens, restaurant and shop.

This exhibition showcases a small part of an extensive personal collection that features her iconic shoes and outfits from her career defining collections such as Seditionairies, favoured by the Sex Pistols and Pirate. The Vivienne Westwood brand was not involved in the curation or organisation of this exhibition.

After a complete sell-out first run in 2023, Ruby Wax‘s rawest, darkest, funniest and most compelling stage show yet announces brand new dates for 2024, thanks to enormous demand.
“The original idea behind this show was based on the extreme journeys that I wanted to take in order to find an antidote to living a frazzled life. Along the way I wanted to find meaning, peace, happiness – the stuff we’re all chasing. However, after some transcendent experiences, I ended up in a mental institution. Obviously, I didn’t find what I was looking for.”
I’m Not As Well As I Thought I Was is Ruby’s first tour show in four years following her critically acclaimed, sell-out tour, How To Be Human.

Emmanuel Sonubi: Curriculum Vitae
2024-05-29 19:30 - 21:30 | Royal and Derngate Theatre, 19-21 Guildhall Road, Northampton, Northamptonshire, NN1 1DP
Edinburgh Comedy Award nominee Emmanuel Sonubi presents a whistle stop tour through the jobs that have led him to become one of the hottest stand-ups on the circuit in the brand-new show, Curriculum Vitae.
Emmanuel will take the audience on a hilarious and sometimes poignant journey that explores the professions that he’s had prior to becoming a comedian, discussing how those experiences helped shape his comedic voice. From working in IT to the doors of London’s nightlife whilst building up an impressive list of musical theatre credits.
As seen on, QI (BBC), Alan Davies As Yet Untitled (Dave), Rhod Gilberts Growing Pains (Comedy Central), Apprentice ‘You’re Fired’ (BBC), Pointless Celebrities (BBC) and headlining Live at the Apollo (BBC).
Emmanuel said today, “I’m thrilled to be back on tour in the UK with ‘Curriculum Vitae’. Last year’s tour was an amazing experience and selling out most of the shows was incredible! Writing this new show has been a lot more fun than writing an actual CV and, I get to be honest”.
London based Emmanuel Sonubi’s career in comedy started only a few years ago and quickly grew from strength to strength earning himself a reputation as “one to watch out for”. A regular favourite on the comedy circuit, he is one of the most sought-after acts working today. Emmanuel’s credits continue to grow as does his popularity.
