The Musical

Titanic the Musical is a powerful show that tells the true story
of the 'unsinkable' ship, it's passengers, and the tragedy

Battle Cry is
a solo play by Matt Fox, based on the true story of a
former soldier, Adam, struggling with post-traumatic stress
disorder (PTSD). The play follows Adam as he recounts his
experiences in war, the horrors he witnessed, and the heavy
toll this took on him.
A powerful and moving exploration of the
human cost of war, and a reminder of the devastating impact
PTSD can have on those who experience it.

Ashley
Blaker: Normal Schmormal
Sun 26 May, 7:30pm
Main Auditorium
The star of BBC Radio 4’s hit comedy 6.5 Children
takes to the road in a new stand-up show, based on the
best-selling book of the same name, about the joys of
raising children with special needs.
Between endless meetings, countless
therapists, public humiliations, failed playdates, surreal
monologues, and occasional violence, it’s certainly not
what anyone would call a ‘normal’ household – but would
Ashley want it any other way?

School of Rock follows 'Dewey Finn', a failed, wannabe rock
star who decides to earn an extra bit of cash by posing as
a substitute teacher at a prestigious prep school. There,
he turns a class of straight–A pupils into a
guitar-shredding, bass-slapping, mind-blowing rock
band.
But can he get them to Battle of the Bands
without their parents and the school’s headmistress finding
out?
