The end of the world – but funny!

The arctic is melting and the evil capitalist polar bear goes through a whole range of feelings to deal with the catastrophe.

A one man show performed by a polar bear, full of slapstick, improvisation, clowning and puppetry, exploring loss, grief and the endless search for hope.

Drill Baby Drill is a funny, heartfelt and poignant show in which one clown attempts to save the world from a climate crisis.

Created by and featuring Frank Wurzinger, directed by John Wright, a professional idiot, whose previous shows have been described as “hilarious” and “physically skilful”

Kanekt: Where Indian Music Meets Global Fusion

Kanekt, a vibrant collective of musicians led by sitar player Ricky Romain, whose performances bring together diverse musical traditions in a spirit of collaboration and improvisation.

Kanekt unites artists from a wide range of musical backgrounds, blending the expressive sound of the sitar with Karen Wimhurst clarinet, Sudhi Salooja violin, Jake Miller bass and Stu Steadman percussion. Drawing on influences from Indian classical music alongside jazz, Celtic, Eastern European and world traditions, the ensemble creates a rich and atmospheric musical landscape that is both adventurous and deeply engaging.

Ricky Romain has performed widely at festivals and concert venues across the UK and is known for his collaborative approach, working across genres and artistic disciplines while placing improvisation and live performance at the heart of the musical experience.

Kanekt’s performances are shaped by musical dialogue and spontaneity, offering audiences a unique journey where cultures and styles meet, connect, and evolve in the moment.
