The Bear
From the book by Raymond Briggs
Adapted by Pins and Needles Productions.
Ever wondered what it would be like to sit on a polar bear's lap? Or ride on its back? Have you ever tried to give a polar bear a bath, or clear up its poo?
One night when she's fast asleep, Tilly is visited by an enormous bear. It has a big black tongue and a yawn as big as your head. But Tilly's not scared.
The story of a little girl who befriends a mischievous polar bear, this playful, funny and heart-warming tale is one of imagination and growing up.
Featuring inventive design, original music, and magical puppetry.
'Move over War Horse, this polar puppet is magic' The Guardian
Age guidance 3+ years.

The Vinyl Frontier: My Favourite vs Your Favourite
Join host Jeff Lloyd for an evening of music, trivia and fun!
The most popular event of last year returns for a Christmas special!
Some of the Vinyl Frontier audience have chosen tracks from specific categories and will match their choice against your host’s in a battle of taste. The audience votes on the winner of each and hopefully another diplomatic 3-3 draw ensues!

‘Harking back to the gin drenched halcyon days of a grimy Berlin nightclub in the 1930s, The Hundred Watt Club sparkles, fizzles, and shines brightly on a dark night’ Fringe Review
Hundred Watt Club employ and embrace adult themes, strong language and partial nudity - not for the faint hearted or easily offended!
There’s no dress code: Hundred Watt Club love it when their audiences dress in their vintage finery and red-carpet glamour, but if you're more comfy in jeans and sneakers - wear them!
Your festive line-up for the night includes the spirit of Christmas personified, your host the Divine Miss Em; gin addled, gorgeously acid tongued drag scrooge Joe Black; Bump 'n' Grind sugar-plum burlesque darling Serafina Hart; tragic and heartwarming, festive vampire Arran Shurvinton and striptease queen, the penny in your pudding Trixie Sparkle.
