Dom Joly: The Conspiracy Tour
“Just because you’re paranoid, doesn’t mean you’re not being followed!”
Dom Joly has been off travelling the globe again. This time, he’s been looking into some of the strangest and weirdest conspiracy theories in existence.
He's now embarking on a rather unique theatre tour, where he'll be providing a hilarious, fascinating, and slightly anarchic guide to the wacky world of conspiracies, like: Is the earth flat? Does Finland exist? Did JFK commit suicide? Are Q Anon mentally ill? Is Bill Gates using vaccines to take control of your mind? Is Denver Airport a massive panic room for the Illuminati? Are UFO’s piloted by lizards?
In the spirt of fairness, Dom will also be inviting a well-known and highly respected conspiracy theorist, Dr Julian Northcote, to take the stage and defend the alternate view.

Shaparak Khorsandi: Scatterbrain
Having reassessed her life through the prism of an ADHD diagnosis in last year's funny and moving memoir, one of Britain's most beloved and most scatterbrained stand-ups lets you back into her mind (warning: it's cluttered in there). Among other things, this show will be a love-letter to letter-writing, a trip back through her early years as a comic and woman-about-town, and a whirlwind tour of a chaotic, hilarious brain.
Dates: Wed 02

Show & Tell by Alan Ayckbourn
Jack’s planning a big party for his wife’s birthday. He’s pulling out all the stops and has booked a touring theatre company to perform in the main hall of the family home. The only problem is that Jack is getting a bit forgetful in his old age and can’t remember all the details of the booking…
The Homelight Theatre Company is on its knees. They desperately need a well-paid gig and Jack’s booking is very well paid. Pinning him down on the details has been tricky and something doesn’t feel quite right.
Alan Ayckbourn’s 90th play is a celebration of theatre, a delightfully dark farce lifting the lid on the performances we act out on a daily basis.
Dates: Tue 01, Wed 02, Thu 03, Fri 04, Sat 05

The Whitby Rebels
In Whitby Harbour, in the summer of 1991, something extraordinary happened. A humble pleasure boat set sail for the Arctic crewed by misfits, pensioners and the vicar for Egton & Grosmont.
This motley crew was assembled by Captain Jack Lammiman to complete a daring mission: to erect a plaque honouring Whitby whaling Captain William Scoresby senior on a volcanic island hundreds of miles north of Iceland.
Their voyage is a classic story of British eccentricity and determination to rival Eddie the Eagle’s Olympic exploits, bus driver Kempton Bunton stealing the Portrait of the Duke of Wellington and crane operator Maurice Flitcroft playing golf in the British Open.
This is the (mostly) true story of a Captain, his crew and a boatload of Yorkshire grit.
Dates: Fri 18, Sat 19, Mon 21, Tue 22, Wed 23, Thu 24, Fri 25, Sat 26, Mon 28, Tue 29, Wed 30, Thu 31
