Lost Atoms tells the story of a relationship: an extraordinary, transformative love. Or is that only in hindsight? Perhaps it was just typical? Or toxic? Or doomed from the start? One thing’s for sure: It changed their lives. Two people plunge deep into their shared pasts and propel themselves into multiple imagined futures. At times hilarious, at times devastating, Lost Atoms explores how memory impacts the way we look at love, and asks what makes a truly “successful” relationship? Following sell-out tours of Othello and Metamorphosis, Frantic Assembly returns with a brand-new play for its 30th Anniversary year, written by Anna Jordan (Succession, Killing Eve, The Unreturning, Yen).

The Rees/ Sengupta Trio is a jazz fusion trio made up of a group of 3 friends who all met studying music in London. We have a modern sound, and seek to incorporate the breadth of Accessibility and heavy hitting grooves of fusion with the sensitive dynamic textures of more traditional jazz. We’re highly influenced by fusion pioneers, such as: Allan Holdsworth, Wayne Krantz and Jaco Pastorius but also readily compose our own material, creating a fresh sound. We’ve taken a unique approach to the traditional roles of the guitar trio, where in our sound the Bass player and guitar player often swap roles: the bass playing a lead role and the guitar player holding it down. We hope that we can bring our cutting edge sound to your venue for a wide Variety of audiences to enjoy. Presented by Next Door Records. All ages

Edmund Ashmore is a multi-faceted drummer and percussionist from Hertfordshire. Growing up listening to Prog-rock organ greats and then later the music of classic Jazz organ trios (Jimmy Smith, Booker T & Jack McDuff). The trio’s sound is inspired by, and melds these influences together. Joined by Joe Herbert on guitar and Alex Flower on the Hammond organ, expect to hear grooves that range from chill 60s blues to blazing fusion. Presented by Next Door Records. All ages

Dara Ó Briain is back on tour, with a brand new show!

‘Maybe that’s what cooking is, you know. Home in a pocket.’ Occupational therapist Naomi really needs her new Caribbean cooking group to go well. Her participants, Ty, Daniel and Leroy, each have their own reasons for joining - and it certainly isn’t all about the food. As the three men cautiously embrace the group, they start to share their recipes and take turns as head chef. Soon, the smells of their cooking transform the secure hospital around their kitchen, and memories of home and their lives outside begin to resurface. With the hospital’s Family Day fast approaching and the group set to cater, their new-found trust is tested and tensions threaten to boil over. As they struggle to break the cycles of their past, Naomi is forced to reckon with whether this group can really be the recipe for change she hoped it might become. The absorbing debut play from Bush Writers’ Group alumni Sophia Griffin, After Sunday is a searing look into the lives of four people grappling with the reality of a dehumanising system. This world premiere production is directed by Belgrade Theatre Artistic Director Corey Campbell (Romeo and Juliet), and features live cooking on stage.
