Robyn Hood

Robyn Hood tells the story of Robyn, a little girl who lives in a big city. Robyn likes to play outside and on a small patch of green land she builds a den; a magical space all of her own, where she dreams big dreams of woodland adventures. Until one day, developers arrive and Robyn’s den is under threat. Robyn retreats into her fantastical forest world where she is the audacious hero with a brave band of outlaws. Robyn and the adventurous outlaws teach the mean Sheriff a lesson and she learns to be the real-world hero that everyone needs.

It’s the Cold War in the early 1980’s. Step into the world of Chess, where political tensions, intrigue and personal ambition collide.

Big Strong Man

BIG STRONG MAN is a raucous, interactive comedy featuring song, dance, improvisation, boyband parodies, lip syncs, ladders, karaoke and a bear. Join four northern lads for a night of Poundland level extravagance as they bring their fast-paced, quick witted and physical comic style to an unforgettable alt-comedy night out.

The Baddies

Meet the very worst Baddies in the world! Don’t you dare to come too close to a witch, a troll and an ancient ghost!

The Baddies love being bad. They roar, spook and cast wicked spells to try and scare a girl out of her wits…who will succeed? Or perhaps the girl is braver than they think…

With songs by Joe Stilgoe (Zog and Zog and The Flying Doctors), The Baddies is a wickedly hilarious adaptation of Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler’s smash-hit story. A laugh-out-loud riot for all the family.
