The Warehouse in Holbeck and Slung Low at Temple

 With details of what's coming up in May:

April saw the opening of a new season of performances at The Warehouse In Holbeck and Slung Low at Temple and the quality of shows has been set very high. Good news.... May is continuing the trend! With true stories about a survivor of the sinking of the Titanic, a show and discussion about a new nuclear weapons treaty, a family show about bravery and getting your voice heard, as well as a family show inspired by three real life skateboarding sisters.  Pretty good eh?! Have a look for yourselves:  Date: Saturday 10th May Time: 7.30pm A one-man theatre show based on the life of Titanic survivor Edward Dorking.  THIRD CLASS charts Edward's journey from boarding the Titanic to swimming for 30 minutes towards an already full collapsible lifeboat and how he, upon arriving in New York, would tour the Vaudeville circuit, recreating the stories for a fact-hungry public. But Edward didn't want fame; he wanted revenge. When everyone was talking about the deaths of millionaires and society figures, few were discussing the people who took the lion's share of the losses that night: the third class. Edward was coming for the upper classes. Book Tickets Talking About The Fire Date: Saturday 17th May Time: 7.30pm Nuclear weapons could destroy us all, right now - so why aren't we talking about them? Sometimes the threat slides into view - Russia invades Ukraine - but that doesn’t make the weapons more dangerous. They’re always dangerous. And one day, deliberately or accidentally, they’ll be used again. From the team that created the award-winning Status and Confirmation, comes a show about a new nuclear weapons treaty - one that’s trying to give the power to eliminate nuclear weapons to the states, and people, who don’t possess them. It’s a show and a conversation. We'll talk about where we are, where we live, and why it's important people like us talk about this at all. There is a post-show discussion after this event as well as an online workshop available.  Book Tickets Three Little Vikings Date: Sunday 18th May Time: 2pm Three brave little Viking girls save the day in this bold and funny adventure story for little rebels, by the creator of the New York Times Best Illustrated Book Little Red and I Can Catch a Monster, Bethan Woollvin. Once upon a time in a Viking village, everything seems to be going wrong. Chickens are disappearing, trees are falling down, and there's lots and lots of crashing and bashing. The silly Chieftain won't listen to the three littlest Vikings, but can they work together to figure out what's going on and save the day? Three Little Vikings is all about cooperation, bravery, and getting your voice heard! Book Tickets Sisters 360 Date: Wednesday 21st May Time: 5pm Sisters 360 is heading to Holbeck & Beeston, as part of the Leeds Playhouse Community Tour! Fatima and Salima will win the Tiny is Mighty skateboarding competition, there is no doubt about it… except their parents have started whispering in the kitchen about living apart… and only the greatest super plan ever concocted will help them achieve their dreams. Don’t miss this brand-new play by acclaimed Bradford playwright Asif Khan inspired by real-life skateboarding sisters Layna, Maysa and Amaya, and their hero Sky Brown. Book Tickets
