AUTUMN SHOWS
A muse, a miner, a magician and more.
As the nights draw in, why not head down to The Holbeck for a refreshing drink, an excellent snack and some cracking entertainment?
We are welcoming some familiar friends as well as new faces to perform, all promising to grip you in their own way.
Michael Wolf returns with 'It's About Time', a night of jaw-dropping magic and time-travelling fun. And our pals RashDash bring two-hander cabaret 'Look At Me Don't Look At Me' about love, art and legacy.
Ray Castleton's "pitch-perfect" one man show 'Without Malice or Ill Will' comes to the club for the first time, alongside award-winning Katie O'Brien's fresh, funny and taboo-smashing one woman 'Catch 22'.
'Sirens, Men and Crabs' is a surreal blend of clown and dark comedy turning Ancient Greece upside down. Whilst 'Planet LOL' will have you howling again, this time about a whole society living on a planet made of solid gold.
Book now as spaces are limited and this line-up is not to be missed.
See you soon!

All you need to know about Carmen...

Carmen features some of the most famous music in all opera, including the Habanera, Carmen's sultry entrance solo, and the Toreador Song, where rodeo rider Escamillo celebrates fame and victory.

In the second half of the day will examine how we can use history and historical figures to write about the world we live in today and help us to tackle some of the problems and issues we face in our modern world.

The novels that shaped our world. A talk and hand-casting workshop with aerialist Rebecca Truman
To celebrate Angela Carter's 'Nights at the Circus', we are hosting a day with trapeze artist, costume designer and artist Rebecca Truman. Rebecca will talk about being an aerialist and costume designer (for circus) and about all aspects of circus lifestyle. There will be costumes and ropes to feel and discuss. Rebecca will also read from her book 'Aerialist'.
After lunch there will be a life-casting workshop and you will get to take something really special home. Hand casting captures so much about someone's life-style and what they have done and in Rebecca's case her hands were callused and strong from aerial work.
Free event.

Your wellbeing matters - financial wellbeing
It might seem strange to be talking about finances under the 'wellbeing' topic - but did you know that worrying about money is the biggest cause of stress for working people in the UK?
What is more, a survey by the Office of National Statistics, highlighted that nearly a quarter of people say their household finances have been impacted by the pandemic and over one third expect their finances to get worse.
The knock-on effects of the pandemic have overwhelmed many, with unexpected financial pressures that may be causing anxiety and impacting on overall health and wellbeing. The stigma and silence that surrounds financial issues just makes things even more difficult. Bringing the issue out into the open means you or people around you will be more likely to seek support early.
The services and resources below can help you or your loved ones find the expert confidential support and advice you need to maintain control over your financial situation and take action around managing debt.
Citizens Advice Bureau – (CAB) - For help with understanding how things like credit or mortgages work, and helping people deal with debt problems, including how to avoid losing your home through debt.
