Friday, Sept 16 - Stringfever – Live In Concert

The internationally acclaimed Stringfever quartet - composed of three brothers and a cousin - , have entertained around the world, from private performances for the Royal family to a packed audience at Madison Square Gardens.

Coming from a family of musicians it was always likely that the Broadbent boys were going

to follow their fathers into the music profession.

Giles and Ralph studied at the Royal Academy of Music and Graham at the Royal College. Giles went on to play lead violin for several West End shows. Youngest brother Neal was due to study cello at the Guildhall School of Music … but instead he was kidnapped by his brothers to be the cellist in their new group – Stringfever!

They have been performing to sell out audiences for the last nine years and acquired a loyal fan base along the way.

Tuesday, Sept 20-24 - The Doctor

In the 'performance of the year', Juliet Stevenson stars in the touring production of the five star smash hit.

On an ordinary day at a private hospital, a young woman fights for her life. A priest arrives to save her soul, but her doctor refuses him entry.

And in a divisive time, in a divided nation, a society takes sides.

Freely adapted from Arthur Schnitzler's Professor Bernhardi, the play is described as a 'provocative, wonderfully upsetting' whirlwind of gender, race and questions about identity.

Sunday, Sept 18 - Al Murray's Gig For Victory

Orange Tree Theatre, Richmond                                                                      

Until Oct 8 – Yellowman

This 'electrifying' revival has opened to rave reviews with praise for this 'sublime piece of theatre'.

Twenty years after it premiered and received a Pulitzer Prize nomination, Dael Orlandersmith's Yellowman, set in the 1960s Deep South, is a moving and deeply pertinent play for now.

Alma and Gene have grown up together. She dreams of a life beyond the confines of their small town. But when their friendship develops into something more serious, Gene's fate becomes tragically intertwined with hers and they can't escape the legacy of racism and the tensions within their own community.

One Paved Court, Richmond

Until Sept 25 - Threads of Time: Eight Women Print Group Show

Eight Women Print is a collective formed during the lockdown. As the artists moved online, they adapted to new ways of creating and developing their individual and collective practices from their homes across the globe in India, Spain and the UK. Each member of the group has explored ideas and experiences that have resonated during the lockdown periods, both local and global, of how we have all adapted, and are still adapting, to different ways of living and being. Their own personal experiences of isolation, upheaval and anxiety as well as wider global experiences such as migration and conflict are explored.

The work will be predominantly printmaking, with sculptural and textile elements woven through the exhibition.
