You can look forward to comedy from Ardal O’Hanlon, Jeremy Hardy, Jenny Eclair, Kevin Bridges, Brendon Burns, Rich Hall, Mark Watson and more.

There are music shows coming from Dennis Rollins, PP Arnold, The CK Gospel Choir and some top swing bands, and you can catch great drama such as the Greek comedy Lysistrata, Shakespeare’s Hamlet and contemporary drama The Pillowman.

If  you’re looking for something a bit different, September sees the return of Adam Buxton’s BUG music video night. We also have comedy and magic from Pete Firman (Chanel 4’s Dirty Tricks), contemporary dance from C-12 Dance Theatre, and the brilliantly burlesque Circus of Horrors who are here in December.

There’s sure to be something you like… click HERE to look at all our shows for the coming months.

Keep an eye out for Guardian “Unsigned” Comedy Act of the Year, Louisa Theobald, poetry collective Aisle16 member Jon Osbourne (whose novel Radio Head was a Radio 4 Book of the Week last year), beatboxers Intensi-T and DUS-T, and Escalator Live Literature winners Molly Naylor and Hannah Walker – plus a host of other brilliant musicians, writers, dancers and comedians.

If you’ve ever enjoyed a night out at Norwich Arts Centre’s Broken Piano Show, or the Birdcage’s Wednesday Night Cabaret (or even if you’re a complete newcomer to the scene) don’t miss this red hot line up from the city which probably has the highest rate of talented, creative, arty types per head of population!

Our spring 2010 season is here, jam-packed with amazing comedy, dance, drama and music shows for you to enjoy. Check out our WHAT’S ON page to browse through the upcoming shows.

Comedy highlights include shows from TIM VINE (puns), CHRIS ADDISON (satire), DAVID O’DOHERTY (music), LUCY PORTER (unbridled loveliness) and RICHARD HERRING (moustache based social commentary).

You can enjoy the sounds of a capella music as you’ve never heard it before from THE MAGNETS, classic jazz from STACEY KENT, or alternative cabaret tunes from THE TIGER LILLIES.

If you want to see something just a bit out of the ordinary, try ONE MAN LORD OF THE RINGS, the atmospheric and chilling ERNEST AND THE PALE MOON (our pick of the 2009 Edinburgh Fringe), or RUBY WAX in the semi-autobiographical comedy-drama LOSING IT. 

Oh, and keep an eye open for our new (blue) brochure which covers January to May 2010, out now at a bar/shop/tourist information centre/doormat near you!

Doors open at 6.30pm – tickets are only £2!!

We will see you there x
