The multi-award-winning comedy duo LipService Theatre return to the Corn Exchange with Strangers on a Train Set.

Notice about essential works in February.

One of our Marketing Officers reflects on seeing Extraordinary Wall O̶F̶ S̶ILE̶N̶C̶E̶ and some of the themes presented and what effect it had on him.

Nir Paldi is co-artistic director of Ad Infinitum, who will be coming to the Corn Exchange in February half term with their family show Chloe and the Colour Catcher. The production follows the story of Chloe, who lives in a completely grey world ruled by the Grey Queen. But Chloe dreams of colour, and decides to fight for what she believes in to unleash all seven shades of rainbow. We spoke to Nir to find out a bit more about the show, and to hear his thoughts on creating theatre for families.

Extraordinary Wall o̶f̶ S̶ile̶n̶c̶e̶ is a bilingual production presented by Ad Infinitum. Using the beauty of British Sign Language combined with spoken English, Ad Infinitum sheds light on a history of oppression experienced by d/Deaf people, using the stories of Helen, Alan and Graham, who are told they are impaired and need fixing. Matthew Gurney, one of the three Deaf actors who performs in the production, tells us more.
