We're hosting a post-show talk after tomorrow evening's performance of 'Calendar Girls the Musical!' 🌻

This is your chance to stay behind after the show and ask the cast any questions you have - whether its about a specific character, the music in the show, or maybe even the funniest moment during rehearsals 👀

There's no extra cost to this, just stick around for a few minutes after the show whilst the cast get changed out of their costumes, and they'll be back out to give you a deeper insight into how this show has all come together!

A first look inside the rehearsal room of upcoming satirical drama 'Application 39!' 📸

Future‑facing, bold and irreverent, the show follows two young IT workers in Gaza who hack the bid process for the 2048 Olympics as a prank... and win.

Their 'victory' becomes a surreal yet pressing journey through occupation, bureaucracy, absurdity, and reconstruction. Drawing on real‑life testimonies, including from Gaza itself, the show poses a radical question - what if Gaza were no longer rubble and siege, but a site of global gathering, resistance and renewal?
